I used this over the summer to develop small 3-5 min previews of the reading material each week for my micro class. Podomatic was very easy to use; the product was good; and I had fun adding small pertinent images to each podcast icon. Feedback from students has been good; they like a preview of what's coming up in the reading; what are focal points, etc.

I have been working with wikispaces lately and trying to develop a wiki project for my environmental science class. I'm working on translating this project into a 'roll-out' for a class of 85 students [divided into smaller groups]. So while wikispaces is very easy to use; I need to look at 'large-scale' development of a project using it [fine-tune the details to avoid mass chaos!].

I use Grooveshark to develop playlists which I use in conjunction with my general toxicology class. I ask students to listen to various selections on my playlists and relate them to concepts we are studying; alternatively, I ask them to compile playlists based around a particular concept. I have not found Grooveshark hard to use; many, many selections from which to choose...lots of fun!

[|Wikimedia Commons]

I use Wikimedia Commons to find images for the homepages of my course modules; I also use it to find images for reflection exercises I do with my toxicology classes. I ask them to meditate/reflect upon the image in relation to a particular concept we are studying ..

[|Microanatomy Atlas]

I use this Microanatomy Atlas of images from the human body when I teach toxicology. I find that my students can better relate to the toxic effects a chemical may produce if they can see an image of the organ system which is affected by the chemical[s].
