Podcasting 101
John Allen
Apple Computer, Inc.
Do you know what Podcasting is? If not, come to this workshop and find out. If so, come and learn what plans are being made to support Coursecasting (recording and distributing recordings of course sessions) at UM. John Allen, Apple Computer, Inc., will demonstrate the entire process of creating, posting, subscribing to, and listening to a voice recording. The session will last 75 minutes (one period) with lots of time for Q&A if you can stay longer. The same presentation will be presented in the morning and in the afternoon. This workshop is designed for faculty who are interested in learning about the Podcasting process, but it is open to anyone at UM who would like to know more about this exciting method of communication.
