Podcasting

I really don't know what podcasting is. I was introduced to podcasting in Test and Measurements, where we would listen to Dr. Luongo's expectations/lessons for our class. I want to learn what podcasting really is and how to use it. From the little bit that I know of podcasting I think the advantages of podcasting are that you can listen to a lesson over and over again, refer to it or use that lesson as many times as you want and you don't have to be in a classroom to access podcasting. The only drawback about podcasting that I know at this point may be that it isn't easy to access equipment to actually do the podcasting.

My general pre-podcasting prediction is that it's going to be different, but fun. I think it will probably be something that I would incorporate in my lessons someday. I also, think that this is where technology in the classroom is headed, so it will be great exposure.
