I've officially claimed the phrase Podagogy to refer to educational use of podcasts.
Santa Monica College is the newest entrant in the "let's throw iPods at our students" contest. While I give SMC full credit for being excited about the idea, they seem to be all over the board with how to best use them.
Some clips from the article:
- 25 low-income summer students will be the recipients of the on-loan iPods
- The downloadable material is for homework. It will not replace teaching
- Podcasting will be used in the remedial English and college orientation courses
- ...plans to have students create their own videos
- College counsellors want orientation students to watch portions of the show "The Office" to highlight communication breakdowns
Whew, tall order. English students, orientation students, downloading extra content for homework and study, making videos, and watching TV shows.
Sounds to me like SMC needs to get a grip on their project before they start handing our the iPods.

P.S.
I didn't make up Podagogy - you can see it around the net like at the U of Wisconsin for example:

Podagogy is a definate trend in educational circles.
