PSU Podcasting in the News
Posted on February 1, 2007
Filed Under News, Podcasts at Penn State
Two pieces of news emerged from PSU on the same day about the Podcasts at Penn State project. The first was an article in the Daily Collegian, the student newspaper on campus, cleverly titled, “Lectures could be available for iPods.” I probably would have said that lectures are available, but I’m not the editor. It is a good piece that represents the project well. It was nice to see that the reported not only got the story from ETS, but also a couple of the faculty we are working with. Always good to hear that voice come through.
The other was in the form of a news story on the local CBS Nightly News last night. I took the bullet for being on-air, but again they did a good job representing the project even if they did focus in on the Apple partnership a little strongly. I guess you go with the coolness factor. Either way it is nice to see a little bit of the work we are doing get some press … next time maybe someone else can be the on air personality … I have more of a face for podcasting. You can view the clip below.
One thing I did notice about both features is how they were very interested in how podcasting could enable students to skip class. We really aren’t seeing that result at the moment, but that is one of the reasons we are still in pilot.
