Description

One of the fundamental questions behind creating a flipped-class environment is “How do I make sure students can still see or hear an instruction if it doesn’t happen during class time?” For many faculty, the answer can lie in podcasting. Podcasting allows faculty to create and upload playlists of audio recordings, which students can subscribe to and listen to any time, anywhere. In this session, we cover the basics of working with Anchor, a free platform that can help you record, edit, and publish your own audio podcast.
