Podcasting

Podcasting Pilot Program:  Baruch College, City University of New York

In 2006, I managed a pilot podcasting project for Baruch College, City University of New York. An internal Teaching With Technology grant project, the podcasting pilot put laptops in the hands of professors to create audio, video and slideshow content. Projects included blended learning, student-produced creative essays & distance education audio projects in subject areas including Art History, Biology, English as a Second Language and Public Policy. During this year, I also recorded and edited the first 3 episodes of The Baruch Business Report for CUNY Radio.
