This week is Social Sciences Week!
Have you seen the Social Sciences Voices web site yet?
Social Science Voices http://www.sosig.ac.uk/voices/ . a special project of SOSIG Each day it is publishing a page on the web site on a topic to do with making use of audio. These include
* Getting started with podcasts
* Marketing and news uses of audio
* Teaching and learning uses of audio
* Research uses of audio
* Putting it all together
Accompanying each day’s written post is a short audio download on that topic, showing how the podcast concept could work.
Looks like a potential resource to highlight in the Media Workshop, though maybe adding podcasting into the mix is going too far… Off to listen now. And the site is a WordPress blog!
Update: The teaching and Learning podcast is worth a listen.
Also found a link to the Economics in Action blog on that site and will forward to Alice & Vinayak as a possible resource
