I have podcasted a few times in my life. I do not do it as much as other people my age, but I still know how to do it. A person can record something and then post it to a link for others to listen to or view. I have downloaded movies and listened to lessons from class. I learned exactly what it is from http://www.apple.com/itunes/whatson/podcasts/ . There are millions of preloaded material on the apple websight.
I think it can help students that were absent for a day or more, or who have a hard time learning. I could put a podcast on a website for my students and then when they are not at school they can get what they need and get it first hand. I have not seen podcasting used much in the elementary schools, but I do believe that it is going to be a big part of school in the future once teachers start using it more often.
It can also be a great way for teachers to communicate with the parents of their students. If a parent is away and cannot attend a meeting, the meeting can be recorded and posted online for the parents to see. This is way more convenient for everyone.

First Real Blog
Hello my name is Erica and I am a elementary education major. I have one any only one sister. I have many dogs. My family breeds and shows German Shepherds. I have always enjoyed watching and playing sports. I love to take pictures and I always have my camera with me. I was able to download a pic that I took of myself with my computer web cam. It is my display picture.
Today I learned how to use new web tools. Blooger has allowed me to display my interest with layout. I changed my colors under the layout tab on the top left side. You can choose what colors, style, and shape of your blog on here. What I found interesting is that you can add features to your blog. I added the sideshow feature and it has one of my interest on it.
Under setting you can chose who can see your blog. You can also select your e-mail set up. There is security features on there that you can edit to allow everyone or no one to see your blog.
I am really interested to get to know everyone. I hope everyone has a good year!
