Episode 2 Coming, We Promise!

For anyone that has checked back or is eagerly waiting for another podcast from us, you can place the blame for the wait squarely on my shoulders. We actually did the podcast almost 2 weeks ago and it was a good discussion on issues of assessment. However, I goofed and did not actually record the discussion (only realizing this after it was done)! We are getting together on Skype again tomorrow and promise to have the new and improved Episode 2 up by early next week if not by later in the day tomorrow.

With apologies,

Dana

Episode 1: E-Readers, E-Textbooks: Where are we headed? "We Have No Idea"

Welcome to our first humble podcast! We will, for now (and due to time constraints), let our words speak for us. We are a work in progress (e.g., my crude audio editing skills!) but promise to improve as we go along. Take a listen and let us know what you think in the comments!
