Welcome to the Nauset Public Schools Podcast Directory! The purpose of this site is to provide you with informational podcasts produced by staff and students of the Nauset Public Schools.

A podcast is made up of a simple audio file and some additional tagging. This additional tagging allows you to subscribe to the podcast, so each time a new show is uploaded, it is automatically "delivered" to a piece of software on your local machine called an RSS aggregator. The two most common programs for subscribing and listening to podcasts are iTunes and iPodder. Both are available for several platforms, and you do not have to have a audio player to use them. If you do have an iPod, and use the newest version of iTunes, any new podcasts will be copied directly to your iPod when they become available.

If you do not wish to subscribe to the podcasts, this blog page will list direct links to the MP3 files so you may listen to the productions at your leisure.

Podcast 10: Kathy on the road at Microsoft

This podcast was created by Kathy Schrock at a meeting of the Microsoft Educator Advisory Council the first week in March 2006. This group of hand-picked educators from all over the country represent some of the leaders in the educational technology field. The exciting thing about meeting with this group is that they are practitioners and their views on classrooms and technology are wonderful!

Kathy posed the same question to this group as she did in an earlier podcast of the technology facilitators on Cape Cod. She asked, "What do you think is the biggest issue facing educational technology today?" Take a listen to this group's insightful answers!
