Academic Aesthetic 156 1. Trivia game posted yesterday. 2. This podcast crossposted on Teachers20.com 3. I may have an alternative to standardized high stakes assessment... but I'm enough of a realist to doubt it. What do you think? 0
Academic Aesthetic 155 Today's show shares some more links, for your listening enjoyment. CD Case pdf, artists or terrorists, web journalism, podcasting wiki, and Teachers 2.0 call for writers 0
Academic Aesthetic 154 I'm looking for a few good writers for Teachers20.com, and the Podcast wiki suggestions are beginning to roll in. 0
Academic Aesthetic 153 I'll be giving a podcasting presentation at MICCA! What are some of the better podcasting wikis out there, and should I use one of those for my presentation or make my own? I'm leaning away from reinventing the wheel, but I won't mind building one from the ground up if the wikis that exist don't meet my needs. 0
Academic Aesthetic 152 Today's 'cast shares three links, all taken from this list of del.icio.us links that include the tag "teachers20." (The tag was created so that the links could show up automatically in the Teachers2.0 Twitter feed, which is a lot more popular than I am. My creation has usurped me! .... oh well.) 0
Academic Aesthetic 151 This is my first podcast recorded MOSTLY using Apple’s Photo Booth, a program that can record still pictures or video. It was never actually intended for podcast creation, as I found out the hard way. As much as I loved playing with the software, half the clips I recorded had no audio whatsoever. This phenomenon was totally random, so towards the end I was resorting to recording short bursts and then immediately checking to see how it turned out. Photo Booth may be a fun toy, but from now on I think I’ll be using other software for my podcasting needs. Oh, and today’s episode has me rambling on about how people are using Twitter and its clones in lieu of recording podcasts and posting blogs. I don’t think this is a bad thing, since any message that can be summarized in 140 characters should be presented that way - short, sweet, and to the point. However not every idea can be made so brief, as evidenced here. I think Twitter is a good thing because that means that we can expect blog entries to be reserved for more complex ideas, while posts that show off a new website or tell us what you had to eat can be reserved for another feed entirely. 0
Academic Aesthetic 150 Pownce vs. Twitter. Pownce is awesome, but Twitter has the people. 0
Academic Aesthetic 149 My New Year's Resolution is to create more content. Also, now anyone can post links into the Teachers 2.0 Twitter feed. 0

Academic Aesthetic 147 Here's a big important question: A reputable company with a product for educators has asked to sponsor my show. Should I say yes? 0
Academic Aesthetic 146 No video this time, just an unedited monologue about new toys and censorship. 0

Academic Aesthetic 144 This might be a little confusing at times without the video (I'll upload that later today), but I think the main message gets through. Are there times when low-tech is better than high-tech? 0
143 - fixed version It has come to my attention that the audio for show 143 was messed up. This is the fixed version. 0
Academic Aesthetic 142 This should have gone up yesterday, but instead I went to see a movie with the wife. It's about encouraging teachers to try tech. 0
