Podcasting with a Magic Wand

Oh, no! Gotta get my magic wand out. Seems funny enough, I subbed (Substitute Taught) this week for a coach and I noticed that the main problem with podcasting was me. To podcast, teachers are going to have to lead. We will have to start by creating the content we want the students to have.

And, who has time for that? So, I think that the teachers' will have to make time to make on-line content educational. This is the "dang-it" side of the Internet. See, it was easy before, because if the textbook was bad it is the editors/authors fault, if the workbook did not help... Who wrote the workbook? Etc.

Web 2.0 leaves the blame squarely at our door, if the content is bad or hard to understand. It is our fault, if the content is missing? Our fault again.
