They showed a couple of examples of what Columbia faculty members were doing with blogs including a popular mathematics blog, <a href="http://www.math.columbia.edu/~woit/blog/">Not Even Wrong</a> about string theory.</p> <p>The podcasting workshop went into a little more detail, and was run by Steve Savera from <a href="http://www.apple.com">Apple</a>. As much as I love Apple products (I am writing from my Powerbook now), Apple seems to be growing more and more with each new product. They have <a href="http://www.apple.com/quicktime">QuickTime</a> or <a href="http://www.apple.com/garageband/">GarageBand</a> to edit your audio files, their new <a href="http://www.apple.com/ilife/">iLife</a> suite for distributing the podcasts, <a href="http://www.mac.com/">.Mac</a> to host your website/podcasts, and finally the <a href="http://www.apple.com/ipod">iPods</a> to listen to the podcasts. Is it me, or is Apple taking Microsoft&#8217;s approach and selling everything?</p> <p>I will publish a list of all the resources I collect here today. Some very smart presenters and some very interesting technologies. Besides the resources, they are giving us educational examples being used here at Columbia. While they are higher-ed, they are quite helpful. I will share those as well.</p> <p><!&#8212;technorati tags start&#8212;><p style="text-align:right;font-size:10px;">Technorati Tags: <a href="http://www.technorati.com/tag/.mac" rel="tag">.mac</a>, <a href="http://www.technorati.com/tag/Apple" rel="tag">Apple</a>, <a href="http://www.technorati.com/tag/college" rel="tag">college</a>, <a href="http://www.technorati.com/tag/conference" rel="tag">conference</a>, <a href="http://www.technorati.com/tag/education" rel="tag">education</a>, <a href="http://www.technorati.com/tag/garage band" rel="tag">garage band</a>, <a href="http://www.technorati.com/tag/ilife" rel="tag">ilife</a>, <a href="http://www.technorati.com/tag/ipod" rel="tag">ipod</a>, <a href="http://www.technorati.com/tag/media" rel="tag">media</a>, <a href="http://www.technorati.com/tag/software" rel="tag">software</a>, <a href="http://www.technorati.com/tag/teaching" rel="tag">teaching</a></p><!&#8212;technorati tags end&#8212;></p> Fri, 27 Jan 2006 10:56:00 EST <a href="/articles/2006/01/27/new-media-in-education-2006">New Media in Education 2006</a> <a href="/articles/2006/01/27/new-media-in-education-2006">New Media in Education 2006</a>
