UC podcasting trial merges education with technology - Lori Kurtzman, Cincinnati Enquirer

Ray Schroeder reports on 11 January 2006:

Something strange is strapped to Nancy Jennings' arm. Standing at the front of a classroom, Jennings is reviewing the syllabus of her Introduction to Mass Communication course, which started Tuesday at the University of Cincinnati. She gives the students her e-mail and phone contacts and tells them they need to score 462 points to get an A in her class. And then she says this: "I am strapped in. We are recording. This is very new. This is experimental. This is the first time it's been done on UC's campus." That thing on her arm? It's recording everything she says.
