It’s no secret that I’m fascinated by live video streaming. I’ve never been one to do much editing, I like my media authentic, unscripted and unfiltered. And that’s the way I’ve always podcasted, well back when I used to do it on a regular basis (more often than once year).
Well, in […]

Pogue shared a letter that’s got me all riled up again…
I’m a high school teacher. Like all high schools, we are dealing with a problem that sucks time, energy, and resources like a black hole: cellphones. We waged a similar battle a few years back with iPods, and although stakes seem much higher now, the […]

Can you guess what’s on my mind in this podcast? That’s right, the two hottest buzzwords in the EdTech community right now. Twitter and Second Life. I’m about as bullish on Twitter as you can get, and I’m really starting to sink my teeth into SL now. On the verge of […]

How many feeds do you have? I’m not asking how many you subscribe to, rather how many do you own? Do you have a blog or two? A del.icio.us account? Have you posted a YouTube video? Do you have a podcast? Share photos on Flickr? All of these […]

I’m not sure how many people discuss the pros and cons of allowing public blog commenting on students blogs at their seder table, but that’s what’s on my mind! The Kathy Sierra situation and Stop Cyberbullying day has left a taste in my mouth worse than matzah with a heaping helping of horseradish. […]

Ladies and Gentleman, this is the third podcast in as many days. Being published a day behind, but that’s no big deal. And I do believe that I’ve now published as many podcasts this week as the last 12 months combined. Yikes!
Topic: Filters… *grunt* What are they good for? Absolutely […]

Two for two! This podcast was recorded yesterday, but I didn’t get a chance to upload it till now. Audio kinda stinks, but sometimes you just have to make do with the tools you have. The fact that I could still create a podcast despite the fact that I had no equipment […]

I know, I know. It’s been freakin’ forever. But yes, I have uploaded a podcast. It’s about 16 minutes long. It doesn’t have a fancy intro. In fact, there’s no music or editing at all. No guests, no new resources for you, heck it probably doesn’t even merit show […]

Yikes, this is starting to become a habit again! This podcast recaps a few conversations that were scattered around NECC and the DEN National Leadership Conference. I’ve heard from many people that the most valuable part of the last few conferences they’ve attended have been the conversations that have occured with other attendee’s […]

If you haven’t explored the Library of Congress website lately, you should. I spent some time in their booth and NECC and was impressed by what they have to offer there. While I wasn’t impressed with the layout of the site, the content is well worth wading through. I also discovered that […]

I know, it sounds crazy, but I’ve got a podcast to share! It’s the night before NECC and if all goes well, I’m going to have a bunch of audio to share throughout the conference. July is actually going to be a pretty busy conference month, so I should have stuff to share […]

Dave Warlick posted a year end podcast containing a few hundred interviews with teachers encouraging them to think about what the classroom of 2015 would look like. Unfortunately, I have to disagree with the projections of many of the teachers. I wouldn’t go so far as to say I have a pessimistic view […]

It’s sad to say, but the Teach42 podcast is going back to the dark side. I’m selling off my Powerbook and need to figure out the best way to create a podcast in a Windows environment. I spent a few hours prior to this podcast trying out some different software. I never […]

Last week I presented a little session about podcasting at Blawgthink, a conference for legal bloggers. The first day of the conference was fairly traditional, with various strands and presentations for all varieties of skill levels. The second day was entirely in the Open Space format. There were no scheduled sessions, […]

Guess what’s back? The Teach42.com Podcast!
Yes, that’s right. After months of silence, I finally have a microphone strapped to my skull once again. It’s nothing earth shattering, just an update about what’s been happening and me getting my feet wet once again. It sounds dumb, but there’s a ton that I […]
