Podcasts Vs PowerPoint


I was reading Christine's post about using PowerPoint (Keynote for Macs) as a great way of introducing her students to podcasting (DS).  I thought that the idea of using PowerPoint was a great idea, especially in that presentation technologies are far more familiar to most teachers than software like iMovie or Audacity might be.  In addition I recently found out that it is very easy to create a narrated presentation through PowerPoint (never knew the option existed before).  This way of including audio is simple, the software is included with the presentation program and you don't need any extra hardware to make it work.
