Grace Poli - Podcasting - Webinar

I just got done listening/watching this presentation. I've taken some notes and downloaded the PowerPoint slides.
This was my first webinar experience (and then it is not really live - just recorded.) I really enjoyed have this opportunity to view it. I will be watching/waiting for future webinars offered through our AEA so I can continue to take advantage of this learning opportunity.
The podcast itself was centered around ESL students using ipods to learn English. Grace had many great suggestions and ideas on how ipods can be used in many different curriculum areas. She also had many great links for resources that I will have to save!
I did have some audio difficulties - the sound kept cutting in and out. That could have been my satellite too.
I leaned a lot about storage and maintenance of the ipods, a big concern of mine! Grace also talked about the benefits and convenience of the Bretford ipod cart - something I have been looking into.
It was very educational and very informative. I'm glad I took the time to watch this webinar.

  1. I know it is not quite the same as live, but she has so many resources and I love it when on the national level, they have real media specialists who are strong advocates for using technology with learning!!

    Plus - the great list of resources.

    These ISTE webinars are terrific.
    With membership, only 20 each or you can purchase the year for $795.

    Last year's offerings (some are still available as archives but at 50.00) are listed here.
