Assignment for Monday, 10/6

Helloooo Everyone!

Here's the stuff you'll need to do by Monday!

• Read Tony Vincent's Podcasting for Teachers and Students, from start to pg. 10 (this should be pretty quick, the pages are filled up with lots of pictures)
• Read Journalism 2.0 Chapter 7, Digital Audio and Podcasting
• Be prepared to discuss the readings on Monday...I want to hear from everyone! Jot down some notes or questions to bring up during the discussion.
  
• Using iTunes or some of the other podcast hosting sites, find what you think is a good or awful example of a science podcast, and post it to the blog along with your opinion of it. (If you can't figure out how to post the video, just post the title and remind me how to show you next class!)
• Recall Peg's lecture about the different areas of focus for the semester. You are all required to complete 3 out of the 4 activities, one of which being developing and outreach tool the MAS can use. The other two you can choose out of school visits, fundraising, or professional networking (conferences). Start thinking about what you would like to focus on this semester. We'll get these set in stone on Wednesday!

Also, we are going to have a guest lecturer come in to talk about blogging on Monday. Mary Carey teaches through the UMass journalism department. Please make a list of 5 questions to bring to class on Monday to ask her about blogging. Again, I want to hear from everyone, so please come prepared!

See you all Monday, and have an AWESOME weekend!
