Reflection 4.2 Podcasts
Write a reflection that documents your exploration of podcasting. Then think of your pedagogy, and content. How could the use of podcasts or audio recording be supportive of learning in your own teaching context? Use the SAMR model (as usual, and for the balance of your explorations of technologies) to propose the use of audio (both learner-accessed, and learner-generated) in your own classrooms at each level of the model. Podcasts....podcasts? I think that is what those groovy "Hipsters" drinking their "Chai Lattes" listen to. Hmm.... let's see shall we? As I explored the topic of podcasts I learnt a lot. I had been wanting to dabble in to this world for a while to be honest. Two Triple J announces I love, Myf Warhurst and Zan Rowe have been talking about their latest podcasts and I believe they might even be top of the podcast sales / downloads as I type. You can listen to their podcasts Bang On here. My fellow student Erin in her blog, rookiesblog.weebly.com shows a catchy clip about not being scared of podcasts. It certainly gave me confidence....and a giggle. Then I discovered an awesome podcast tailored especially for kids! See info about The Beanies below. I had a play with Audacity. And boy have I spent some time on trying to get this audio in to here. Thank goodness for youtube. I learnt how to send it from Audacity to Soundcloud which weebly likes. Phew! Have a listen below to yours truly and my memories of when Oodgeroo Nunuccal visited my high school in 1988. Oh such a privilege was wasted on this one at that time. Yet alas, all things come full circle and here I am in 2017 making my own sound clip about it. I wanted to edit it further and put a recording of Oodgeroo herself reciting one of her poems on the end, but I am running out of time. So instead please visit here to experience that.

(See here for details from ACARA for the full curriculum detail.)

Maya Angelou // "Courage is the most important of all the virtues, because without courage you can't practice any other virtue consistently. You can be kind...and fair and generous...occasionally. But to be that thing time after time, you have to really have courage."

Then without realizing it, you try to improve yourself at the start of each new day."
