EdTechRoundup<\/a> is a new podcast from an open group of UK educators which I have become involved in. <\/p>\n

EdTechRoundup is a place where a group of UK-based educators come together for discussion and collaboration around the use of technology in education. We believe in pedagogically-sound uses of educational technology, but don?t believe in ramming Web 2.0 (or anything else for that matter) down people?s throats?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The first podcast<\/a> is out. This one sees David Noble<\/a> and Sinclair Mackenzie<\/a> at the controls with input from Joe Dale<\/a>.<\/p>\n

They discuss tools for the classroom including ClassTools.net: Flash Templates for Educators<\/a> and the problems of online content being blocked in schools. Joe Dale provides his top 5 reasons to use blogs in class or school.<\/p>\n

The dual presenter with input from a guest<\/em> is going to be the pattern for the show with a different set of presenters taking over for each show. A fair number of UK educators are involved (see the edtechroundup \u00bb Contact Details<\/a> page) and the podcast is open to anyone to join in. In good social media fashion the podcast has been organised on a wiki<\/a> and a series of FlashMeeting<\/a>s. The Meetings<\/a> are announced on the wiki so it is easy to join in.<\/p>\n

Apart for planning the podcast the meetings have been good fun and a lot of interesting areas of tech and social media discussed. If the first show and these discussions are anything to go by EdTechRoundup<\/a> should be a good feed to add to iTunes or other podcatcher<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Tom Barrett<\/a> and myself will be hosting the next podcast which should be out in a couple of weeks.<\/p>\n
