Objective
Learners will acquire the technology they need to create audio learning experiences
Introduction

There are many levels of experiences, ranging from the amateur audio lecture to the more professionally produced podcast complete with original score, and everything in between. In order to post your audio learning experiences so that your students will have access to them, you will need a computer with internet access, a microphone, some audio editing software, and a place to post the files online. See the guidelines below for more detailed information.
