The whole podcast concept, alludes me. I understand that you record the information that can be listened to at a later date. It stays on-line for as long as you want where others are then able to listen or download if they wish. I am just not sure of the purpose of this kind of medium. Podcasts are not an ICT that I have come across before or ever had the need to use. I like the idea of using a podcast to produce music that can be shared out amongst the internet. Then from there I guess its a small jump to broadcast your information choices across the net. I am still struggling to embed any podcasts on my blog other than a music one. The education sites, don't always offer the html code and this is a little frustrating when your technical savvy is limited. To use this kind of ICT in the classroom, would be another great way to have your students present their information or to teach other students about current and local issue. In my classroom I would encourage students to create a podcast that was a little more like a radio show, so that they can look into the structure of this kind of media.
