Podcasting

Today I have been very busy experimenting with loads of useful tools such as movie maker and now I have just finished creating my first podcast, its not much but it is a small sample of a recording of my voice as a demonstration. This was my first attempt at using podomatic.com although I have used audacity before which is a program very similar. At first I had a little trouble publishing it correctly but soon realised that the format that I had used to record the message on my phone wasn't a compatible file with podomatic so I had to start again. I then tried using the voice recorder provided by podomatic with picked up lots of interference when I recorded it, although plugging in a microphone headset worked better as the mic was a lot closer to my mouth and it picked up less interference.

It is a good resource although for young children it might be a bit of a challenge as you have to speak very clearly and pronounce each work correctly otherwise the recording can become hard to differentiate between each words. However it is a fantastic tool to use in the classroom for students in the upper levels of primary school and high school.
