In my opinion, podcasting is the next generation of ham radio. It is audio used to relay a message on a topic of interest. The difference between Podcasting and Vodcasting is one is video (Video on Demand=vod) and one is audio.There are many advantages to using podcasting, including but not limitied to:
1. Preservation of content- Anything you make can be kept in perpetuity and redistributed as needed.
2. Proliferation of content- Once it is in a file format, a seemly infinite number of copies can be made and distributed to a wide audience.
3. Planning of content- Usually when something is recorded, there is more planning and thought given to production and thus some of the mistakes from spontaneity are reduced.
I am not sure to what extent I will be able to podcast in my room yet. Once I create a structured, standards-based curriculum, I would like to include podcasts to augment my curriculum.

Podcasting and vodcasting can have the uses that tape recorders and video cameras had in the past. Increase in teacher communication regarding lessons, etc. Aid to those kids who are too timid to perform in front of class but will do so in front of a recording device.
