You are my first official podcast that I have listened to. I am working on second master's degree (first one in mathmatics with a concentration in mathematics and pedgaogy, second one in educational administration for my +32 hours). I am taking the Data Management with Dr. Tom Grissom, Eastern Illinois University. Dr. Grissom is exposing us to lots of new technology. I always thought I was pretty good with technology (Smart board, computer software, Microsoft Office), but I was not interested in online resources beyond content stuff or email. My daughters are the social online people. Anyway, Dr. Grissom is requiring us to listen, review three podcasts and discuss them on our Blackboard. I enjoyed your podcast very much. It reminded me of a "mom and pops" radio show. My husband and I were involved in radio back in college in the mid 1970s. So, to me, a podcast is a digitally recorded radio program. I chose this particular podcast because the mini-laptops are interesting to me. I want to know more about their capabilities and comparison to regular size laptops. Mark referred to those as business type laptops. Mark's "digital campfire" metaphor is excellent. It makes me want to grab a marshmallow and rethink how I could use technology more effectively. Kathy's comment "technology will fuel what you want to accomplish" makes me think as well. My alma mater has as part of its mission statement transformation of character in a Christian context and has not embraced online learning. Your podcast helps me see how chapels could be podcast, profs' lectures could be podcast, professorts could require students to blog about readings, etc. I think that technology could enhance and reach students in new ways. Thank you. I am the secondary math resource person for my school district and we just did a math adoption. We wanted every math teacher in grades 6-12 to have an LCD projector and document camera in their classroom to generate math discourse and allow their students to explain and justify their strategies to each other. Now you are making me think of how podcasts could generate interest and engagement for our students both in listening mode and even better in creating podcasts. Thank you very much. Mark and Kathy:
