Another exciting week! This week we were tasked with exploring Audacity, Lame and Creative Commons. I am normally pretty hesitant to download free programs for fear of viruses but I had previous experience with Audacity and knew it to be relatively safe. Audacity is a program that allows you to create and edit audio. Lame is the program that you need to export the audio files in the mp3 format. I found the program to be relatively easy to use and pretty extensive for a free program. I also was able to receive a Creative Commons license to in essence copyright the podcast that I created and determine my sharing rights. The biggest task in creating the podcast was in the timing. We were working within a 2 minute minimum and it was very difficult to be detailed yet brief! Overall I learned a lot and will be able to share this information with students and colleagues.
