Our session firstly consisted of familiarising ourselves with digital sound recorders, the first of which was the tape recorder. This device was quickly waived because sound quality is compromised, though it still can do the job.
The digital recording devices were then looked at and microphone capability explained. These recording devices are small and can easily fit in the palm of a hand. They have a digital display and I wonder do they have the capability to increase font size? Can anyone tell me?
The microphone connection can be added to the recording device and the mic placed into the middle of activity needed for capturing.
The next amazing device we were shown was a digital photo-frame that allows you to view a series of photos, video or movie even. I'm sure to be using a device like this at some stage of my educational journey.
Then there is the podcasting workshop. We were privileged to meet with Otago University staff and students over teleconferencing capability. This was interesting in that they have been podcasting a radio show from thier region via iPod. However, the teleconference application was unkind to us and two-way verbal conversation was staggered but comprehensible.
I found this session rewarding in that it allowed me to understand, that one needed only an iPod, a laptop with broadband connection and an internet server, all of which is unaffordable at the moment, but feasible.
