My Podcast Progress (and other)

I am certainly still learning about podcasts. I have subscribed to pickle....and have created part of my profile. I have an image I'd like to add so it directed me to join flickr and I've done that, but still working on how to add the image to my profile. I plan on going to information websites such as Wikipedia to see if I can get a better concept of what podcasts are for. I also found that I subscribed to google reader last semester so I went to my google reader page and am still trying to figure out how to add everyone. My class from last year is still on there right now, but I am working on it. I learned also that since this is all kind of meshing together in my mind........I really need to take notes on all of this as I am doing it. I have made a list of all of my new endeavors, and my user names and passwords for each. I think I'm getting off to a pretty good start. I plan to explore more as the week goes on, since I'm stuck at home in this ice storm. Dr. Lowell sure picked a good week to go south. :)

Anti-Vandals


This is a picture of something good that my 16 year old son and his friend did. There is a sewer passage over the hill from our house that I was never made aware of, but apparently my kids had seen while exploring. There is lots of offensive graffiti painted all over it. My son and his friend decided one day to go over and paint over the offensive words with good words. I was very proud of what they did when I seen it.

MULTIMEDIA

To me, it's lots (multi) of different ways to use media. In the classroom for example, we can use technology in the form of websites, pictures, music, videos, games, educational software, Etc.
