bobCast #11 September 26th, 2005 Podcasting Meets WebCT Lite while using the Clickers

This week we meet with Professor Sharon Rifkin and speak with her about WebCT Lite and the workshops that the e-learning team is putting together to introduce this new effort to spread the use of technology in the classroom.

We, also, talk with Dr. Greg Reeder about his workshops on Computer Performance System (“clicker”) technology. This new technology helps the students provide feedback to the teacher in real time and provives the teacher with a better insight into how well the students understanfd the material covered in class.

David Shulman and Mary Diaz and I discuss the workshop "Is That a Class in Your iPod?". This workshop provides the attendee with an understanding of what procasting is, how it is created and how it can be enployed as a teaching tool by faculty.

A couple of strange characters (other than Bob) and some great "podsafe" music round out the lineup.

"Put Your Ears" on and give us a listen!
