At times I have been accused of being long winded. Shocking I know. In many ways I take the opposite tact of The Elements of Style. Namely, never say in 10 words what you could say in 100. Thus my test podcast (focusing on the riveting issue of State comparisons on Education tests) clocks in at a whopping ten minutes. Sorry about that. If any of you make it all the way through I'll buy you a Coke.
Anyway, as to how I see this working in my field, I actually think it could. I can think of many applications. I often struggle to provide resources for parents to help them interpret their children's test results. A brief podcast might just be the simplest, most direct way to do that. Same goes for instructions to teachers and administrators. Having a verbal podcast available might save me a lot of phone calls. On the whole I have to say I was shocked at how easy the whole thing was. I would have imagined it as being much more complicated. Its a testament to Web 2.o technology how easy the whole thing was.
