Extending blogs with podcasting
From High School Online Collaborative Writing
When does writing happen when we use multimedia online? How does writing change?
Podcasting is one example of using multimedia to publish online. We can also us images, videos, animation, or smell-o-vision (coming soon!). By looking closely at examples from one medium and practicing the use of that medium, we hope to inspire thinking about how writing and media work differently in a digital, online world where self-publication is possible.
