tt4t_025 Flip Video Camera a Winner

It’s Friday, February 15, 2008 and welcome to Episode 25 of Tech Talk 4 Teachers, I’m Tom Grissom. Well we have made it to the silver anniversary episode of TechTalk4Teachers #25 and I would like to thank everyone for tuning in. Every week we discuss trends in technology use and how technology is being used to improve the teaching and learning process. I also share a Technology Pick of the Week that can be adapted for classroom use.

We are beginning to develop an audience despite the fact that I have not yet listed TechTalk4Teachers in the iTunes, Zune Marketplace, or other podcast directory. People are finding us and I would be interested in how you first learned about the TechTalk4Teachers podcast. According to the website statistics we have had 433 unique visitors from 32 states and 13 different countries since we began this podcast.

The easiest way for people to find us is to type in TechTalk4Teachers in Google or your search engine of choice. Because this show is about technology and education you can help shape the content of future episodes. If you have an idea or a suggestion for a future show please send an email to techtalk@eiu.edu Let us know what you like and/or offer your suggestions for improvements.

I would like to ask a favor by having you help spread the word by telling at least one other person about this podcast so we can grow our numbers and get new listeners. The more listeners we have the more we can build a community of practicing educators that can share effective strategies for integrating technology into the curriculum.

If you are visiting techtalk4teachers.blogspot.com website please answer the survey on the right-side of the page. The current poll asks if you had ever listened to a podcast before visiting TechTalk4Teachers. Right now results indicate that approximately two-thirds of our listeners had never listened to a podcast before visiting TechTalk4Teachers.


Tom’s Technology Pick of the Week

My Technology pick of the week this week is the Flip Video Camera. I recently purchased a Flip Video Ultra Camera and so far I give it two thumbs up. A link is provided in the show notes to the Flip Video Camera website.
