Presentation of how podcasting was used for Chinese course

Goals for course were to capture classroom presentations and also allow groupwork/student presentations.

Video-taped presntations. Allows for snapshot in time. Parents also viewed movies.

Sakai and poderator tools talked about.
BYU iPod fillup station. got licensing for materials. Download the playlist for classes with setup in lab--ready for import.

Looking at leopard server with Podcast server. Also sharestream

Q: how much attention was given to audio quality...
Classroom has improved mics. PZMs on tables. Will test directional mics and lapel mics in the future.

Notes: shotgun mics work well.

Felix, Gus and Pat shared projects and ideas on mics: omnidirectoinal, lapel, and redubbing in te back office as postproduction!

Snowball mic from Blue says Felix.
