Today my district librarians had a staff development course meeting where we discussed our experiences with this program. We also worked on podcasts. I left feeling confident that I knew what I was doing. Well. . .what worked on my school computer didn't work on my home computer. After plugging in my microphone, I ran the sound test in Photo Story, but my microphone wasn't detected. I played around with my computer settings, but to no avail--I was unable to figure out how to record audio on my home computer. I created the following videocast, but with text in lieu of what I was planning on recording.
Every year I promote the Lone Star Book Awards books to my students. I think that creating a videocast to booktalk these books is a great way to get their attention. Using Photo Story was a breeze (it is so user-friendly!), and I plan on creating videocasts for each book and showing them in the library.
