lab task – a test of your creativity and
online video production literacy

5. Podcast Review
• Listen to some of last week’s podcasts via
Blackboard
• Leave a comment for feedback using the
‘Comment’ button at the foot of the wiki
page
• Further work: you could blog about making
the podcast for your ‘personal learning
journal’ • How did you approach the task? What did you learn
about podcasting technically or creatively? What do
you think about the use of podcasts as a form of
communication?

6. Lab Task Outline
• To be completed in time for next week’s lab,
