bobCast #15 News and Workshop

This is the bobCast for Friday Feb. 3, 2006

TECHNOLOGY NEWS

Today we will be looking at the technology news at BCC and the big news item is the the approval of the Podcast Project grant.

This grant allows us to have a server for podcasting.

Software and hardware that will allow several faculty to produce a podcast or two as a pilot project and podcasting can now become a player in the College's e-learning system.

Podcasting has been called the TiVo of the classroom.
in many ways it brings the classroom to the student anytime and any where.

I attended a workshop by apple computer the other day where they presented information about their new software that allows for the creation of podcasts.

The good news is that it looks very good and is somewhat easy to use.
The bad news is that it will only run on a Mac.
