I am excited about creating podcasts. I found a website about students creating podcasts. The site also has competitions. Next year, I am going to have my students research a topic and then create a podcast to educate their peers about their subject of research. Susan

Can anyone recommend free software to convert RSS feeds for my iPod?

At our school we don't pod cast, but we do audio cast (with Olympus audio recorders $60.00-$70.00 each --on say tiger direct or amazon -- microphone included, view product at http://www.olympusamerica.com/cpg_section/product.asp?product=1170). The recorder has a usb as part of it that connects directly to your computer, the only disadvantage is that we have to convert the .wma files to .mp3 before posting, but we have found that very doable. Our teachers post their class recordings on a website or in their moodle course pages. They won't automatically be updated on their portable equipment, but they can listen to them on their home computers, at school, put them on their thumb drives/portable media.
