Podcasting

Feb. 1 & 8, 2011 @ MacLab1, Ed. Centre, 4:00 - 6:00 p.m.  **Oral Communication in French - Podcasting, Garageband and Web 2.0 Tools** - Podcasting is the perfect way for language students to improve pronunciation, fluency, expression and intonation in their second language. Garageband includes sound effects, music and more to make practising and presenting French dialogues fun as well as educational. Podcasts can be put on websites, blogs and wikis, burned on CD’s, played on the announcements or shared through many other media. We will also explore other Web 2.0 tools where students can record their voices.
