My First Attempt at a Vodcast...

Okay.. so it's nothing spectacular.. but I just finished it. I used Switch, Audacity, Sound Recorder and PhotoStory. Imagine how much work the real deal will be! The purpose of this video is to present an introduction to our Craycast Project. My students are researching print and online media, and they will be bringing it all together for a series of vodcasts. I also will be working with our Technology Integration Facilitator and Library Media Specialist; using Digital Communicator to transform two students into anchorpeople on a new network. I hope it is half as much fun for them as it has been for me to dream it!
Here is my vid.. be gentle...

I tried to play the video and it took 3 minutes to download the first 7%.

I'm using Flock and home dsl, and don't usually have that kind of problem.

sue r.,

Thanks for the heads up. I like Teachertube because it passes most parental and school district blocking programs, but unfortunately the speed doesn't seem to be consistent and I apologize.
I am going to be investigating some alternate means of video hosting, but here is a direct link to the same video hosted on my class website.

Adam, that link was much better. I like the hands-on, investigative nature of the project, which clearly comes through!

Down here all the fish are happy
As off through the waves day roll

The fish on the land ain’t happy
They're sad 'cause they're in a bowl

But fish in the bowl is lucky
They're in for a worser fate

One day when the boss gets hungry
Guess whos goin’ be on the plate(uh-oh)

Under the sea, under the sea
Nobody beats us
Fry us and eat us in fricasee
