EDM613 WK02 – PODCASTING: resources for teaching digital photography
Podcasting has become a great way to learn about almost anything you would want to. I have just learned a new term this past week. This term is called time shifting. The way I interoperate this term is that you can shift learning to meet your schedule, not your learning to someone’s schedule.
As a media teacher, I love to teach classes on digital photography. Consequently, I am always looking for any resources to supplement my teaching materials. The following are some of my sources for podcasting:
01. http://www.lightroomkillertips.com
This site has great lessons in the form of podcasts. This site by Matt Kloskowski is a great learning portal resource for learning Adobe Photoshop Lightroom.
02. http://www.mulita.com/blog/
This podcasting site is hosted by George Jardine. The site’s host, George Jardine, was the pro-photography evangelist for Adobe Systems. In this site, he podcasts about Adobe Photoshop & Adobe Photoshop Lightroom. My favorite podcast was an interview with Pete Turner, the father of modern color photography.
03. http://www.apple.com/itunes/
I know, this is a slam-dunk list for podcasts. The reason I chose to include this link is because I don’t think people really understand the breadth & depth of the Apple iTunes store. In the 1960’s Arlo Guthrie had a song called Alice’s Restaurant. It was at this restaurant that you could get anything you want. If Arlo sang this song today, it would be about the Apple iTunes store.

Everyone wants to take great photographs. In this series of podcasts, photography beginners can use podcasts to improve their photography.

Let’s go intergalactic with our photography. What better way to see back into the future than to see what the Hubble Space Telescope sees.

Response to Classmate–Graham
Graham, this is an excellent resource for teaching photography using podcasts. Do you have a favorite textbook for teaching photography? What camera do you recommend for beginners?
