Podcasts

Podcasting is now available at AU. iPods, microphones and adapters are available in the Faculty Corner and personalized training is available through the Teaching & Learning Resources Group. If you are interested in borrowing or purchasing an iPod, please contact us beforehand as not all models of iPods are currently capable of recording audio.

What is a Podcast?
Podcasts are audio or video files distributed via Real Simple Syndication (RSS). Essentially, a podcast is an audio/video file delivered by subscription. With a podcast, the world can subscribe to your lecture, transfer it to an iPod, and carry it around with them.

Watch Podcast Tutorials
View podcasts for Final Cut Pro, DVD Studio Pro, iMovie, Audacity, and more through the New Media Center.
