Enhanced Podcasting

What is an Enhanced Podcasting?

An audio-visual media product. Although it combines both audio and visual elements, the focus of an Enhanced Podcast is on the audio element. The visual elements should be thought of as supporting the audio file.

What are today’s goals?

  • For everyone to understand how Enhanced Podcasts can be used for instruction as well as student knowledge building
  • Everyone will create, present, and add a two to three minute Enhanced Podcast to my iTunes Library
  • For everyone to learn a little bit more about Apple’s OSX and navigating around GarageBand, Keynote, iPhoto, and Safari

8. Presentation techniques

- Mirror Display turned On (System Preferences > Display) if you want your screen the same as the projector screen
- Keynote with notes (View > Show Presenter’s notes)
- Remote control (Pairing)

If you want to see the Presenter’s notes on your own screen when presenting, do the following steps when you are connected to a projector:
1. Keynote > Preferences > Presenter Display (Select what you want to see as a presenter e.g. Notes) > Select “Use Alternative Display to View Presenter information”
2. Keynote > Preferences > Slide Show > Present on Secondary Display
3. Click on Open Display Preference > Arrangement > Turn Mirror Display OFF
Your keynote will be on the Projector’s screen so click on the Play Button to test out.

9. Sharing your slides
