Want to learn how you might create a podcast? Take a look at a recent article from the Chronicle.

How to Podcast Campus Lectures by Brock Read.

Chronicle of Higher Education; 1/26/2007, Vol. 53 Issue 21, pA32-A35, 4p, 3c

Abstract from Academic Search Premier:

The article looks at how a growing number of professors are recording their lectures and making them available as podcasts, which are regularly updated sets of audio files that students can download to their computers or MP3 players. More and more colleges are trying to help professors who want to try podcasting lectures, also known as coursecasting. Many colleges are using a free service from Apple called iTunes U to handle the distribution of coursecasts. The article presents advice from college officials who have started extensive podcasting services, which includes making the technology easy for professors, asking students what they want, reading the fine print in the contract with Apple, and thinking seriously about intellectual property.
