6. What is a Podcast?
The Official Definition:
A podcast is an episodic program delivered via the
Internet using an XML protocol called RSS. Podcast
episodes can be audio files, video files, documents, or
any combination of the three. The publisher or
broadcaster podcasts the program by posting the
episodes and the XML document to a Web server. The
consumer subscribes to the podcast using a client
application, such as iTunes, which regularly reads the
XML file and downloads new episodes.

7. What is a Podcast? (cont.)
The “Plain English” Definition:
A podcast most commonly refers to an audio file, but
can also be a video or text file, that is subscribed to via
a web format known as an RSS feed (Rich Site
Summary). Whenever the podcaster updates or adds
content, the RSS feed sends the new content to an
aggregator like iTunes or other sites.

26. Wikis & Bulletin Boards:
An Analogy
A wiki is a website version of a community bulletin
board. Both are places where anyone within a
community is free to publicly post announcements,
ads, ideas, and/or solicitations. The main difference
is that wikis allow the items that are posted to be
edited, reworked, and remixed.
27. Wikis & Bulletin Boards:
An Analogy (cont.)
Imagine that you are looking at a
community bulletin board.
What if you could digitally edit a
misspelled want-ad, or add artwork,
music or other types of files to a
concert flyer to make it more useful
or aesthetically pleasing? Finally,
what if your bulletin board could be
viewed not only by local residents,
but by the whole world…?
That would be a wiki.
28. Teachers need to stop saying, “Hand it
in,” and start saying “Publish It.”
