Podcasts to Improve Learning: part of the Certificate of Emerging Technologies 





Emerging technologies offer new opportunities for educators to deepen learner engagement and improve the learning experience. Numerous new tools and approaches have emerged and continue to emerge: blogs, wikis, podcasts, social bookmarking, and social networking services. 



The units in this course will explore the different technologies and suggest their potential impact on teaching and learning. We will be focusing on tools which increase learner choice and engagement, interaction, and the formation of professional learning networks with fellow educators and experts outside of classrooms.
