Jonathan Bergmann and Aaron Sams

Jonathan and Aaron have revolutionized their classrooms using video podcasts, or vodcasts.  Students no longer come to class to hear a lecture, they now watch lectures at home prior to class on their computers, iPods, cell phones, or DVD players.  In class, students are engaged in hands-on activities and directed problem solving. This webinar will include technical instructions for creating video podcasts using a variety of commercial and open source software, pedagogy of using video podcasts in the classroom, and Jonathan and Aaron's results after a full school year of instruction using this model.
