Why wait till CPD catches up? If you want to learn about podcasting, you could go here for free!
Thanks to Christopher for keeping me up to date. Would be a good idea to del.icio.us-ise or digg this and let teachers you know who might fancy it!

PODCASTING WORKSHOP
presented by John Harris and Michelle Kasprzak

at the Electron Club, Centre for Contemporary Arts (CCA), 350
Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow
Wednesday 10th January 2007, starting at 7.00 pm
admission free - no booking required

A hands-on introduction to creating and publishing your own podcasts.
Podcasting is a system for distributing audio content over the
internet. This workshop will take people through the process of
creating and formatting audio for podcasts using the Free Software tool
Audacity, putting your podcast online, and publicising it through RSS
feeds. It is presented by two practitioners experienced with podcasting
and online distribution, John Harris and Michelle Kasprzak, who will be
happy to answer questions, explain the jargon and discuss issues of
copyright, copyleft and ‘open content’ publishing.

Equipment and software for producing your podcasts will be provided in
the workshop, but please bring your own headphones!

If you have a laptop and would like to have the software used in the
workshop installed on it, or just prefer working on your own computer,
bring it along - network access will be available to all.
