Skip the Ipod: Dial into a Podcast on Your Phone

Here is an article about two new services that allow listeners to use a phone number to dial into a podcast and listen to it. Still developing, but interesting. You are using your phone minutes though.

I have the two numbers on my phone now, and subscribed to Shakespeare as one choice.
I'm interested in exploring the sound quality, time per program, and understanding the logistics of selecting a specific podcast program out of several on a single channel.

Glimpse Inside a Metaverse: The Virtual World of Second Life

This video is about Second Life--one example of virtual worlds that people participate in online. Google TechTalks March 1, 2006 Philip Rosedale and Cory Ondrejka ABSTRACT Linden Lab is the producer of Second Life, an online world with a growing population of subscribers (or "residents"); currently, the community has well over 140,000 residents from 91 countries. By providing residents with robust building and scripting tools, Linden Lab enables them to create a vast array of in-world objects, installations and programs. Since its early stages, Linden Lab has allowed its residents to retain full IP rights over their own creations, thereby insuring that their contributions to the community remain truly their own.

Flickr: A Class-Created Image Collection

Learners might be asked to submit photos to illustrate real-world examples of principles covered in a given course.

Flickr is a service that allows people to upload photos to a webspace, make notes on them, and exchange remarks about them with others. Alan Levine (CogDogBlog) and others have written these uses.
Flickr.com

This tool can be used in for various learning purposes for tech-supported,hybrid or fully online courses.

The first one is illustrated here. If you wanted to allow a class to post photos on a particular topic (say architecture), the faculty could create an account that the class could use (the class needs the ID and the Password in order to upload their photos). I allowed for friends and family to see this collection, rather than making it full public.

Once I loaded a couple images in the account, I clicked on the RSS feed button on the Flickr upload page to get that URL and loaded it into this site so I could get the code for the items you see below. A person could embed this same code into WebCT so learners could see photos as classmates loaded them in without having to go outide the class. Note that one of these images has a hotspot/not embedded in it. More on that later.

Hi All,

So what do the tools have to do w/ learning centeredness?

Here's a photo from Flickr that someone might have posted as evidence of his or her work. Flickr also would allow this person to
place one or more hotspots in the photo as well, or create a badge, or collection of photos, that in this case, might be part of the lab report for a class.
