Jennifer Wagner -- severalpodcasts at podomatic.com -- http://womenofweb2.podomatic.com/entry/2006-12-13T11_16_59-08_00 She interviewed several people and recorded the interviews as podcasts. Children did dramatic readings of novels they studied (Charlotte's Web).
VincentV: I am working with 3rd graders this february and march to work on a podcasting unit with our third grade teacher. We have done the background research about names around our schools. We were going to use either audacity or garage band.
My podcast had a lot of mushy "s" sounds - how can I filter that out?
I am looking for some good tutorials for using garageband and podcasting .. I have looked at the Apple site..but looking for something more step by step with the current version of Garageband. Have a look at Atomic Learning - http://www.atomiclearning.co.uk/podcasting
