Podules working scripts

January 11, 2008

PodulesLogoI’ve added a resources page to the MP.com website and on them, I’ve included the working scripts that Mel Jones and I used when we were recording Podules. The scripts give some information about the basics of podcasting, in bullet-point/note form, as outlined in my Podules podcast. They’re meant to supplement Podules rather than take its place, so I strongly recommend that you listen to the audios as well.

Upcoming podcasts

January 8, 2008

EdComLogoI’ll soon be releasing the first of each of the EdCom and Podules podcasts on MeganPoore.com. EdCom is a podcast for educational comment in Australia and brings together a wide variety of voices and viewpoints — if it’s got to do with education, you’ll hear it on EdCom. Podules, on the other hand, is a smaller, advice-type podcast that gives those new to podcasting tips on how to go about creating your first podcast — basically, it’s a podcast about podcasting … a metapodcast, if you will!

I recently spent three, totally full-on days in Adelaide, interviewing a wide variety of people for EdCom. Here are just some of the conversations you can look forward to:

  • Greg Black, the CEO of education.au, talking about futures thinking in education
  • Ruth Geer, lecturer at the University of South Australia, explaining some of the challenges for international students presented in the Master of Teaching program
  • Cherie Pickering, a former teacher at McLaren Vale Primary School, describing her experiences with implementing Moodle in the classroom
  • Rachel Faulkner, Learning Unlimited Service Manager, giving us insights into how Mission Australia provides educational opportunities for disengaged young people
  • Susan Hyde, Jude Hines, Rick Williams and Raph Zadey, all of Blackwood High School, covering a range of topics from the learning future to philosophy and education to next year’s trial of a Personalised Digital Learning project
  • Lillie, a year 9 student, going some way to explaining why students of that year level have a reputation as being a bit ratty in school
  • Kerry Johnson, Education Officer at Education Network Australia (EdNA), having a ball with EdNA’s 10th birthday celebrations in Second Life
  • Priya Subramaniam, Law tutor at Flinders University, discussing the effects of commercialisation on universities

And many more!

I really hope you can join us on EdCom, and, don’t forget, if you want to suggest an interview send an email to edcom@meganpoore.com.
