I’ve been fooling around with ProfCast a bit and I must say– I LOVE IT. If you have a Mac and you make multimedia presentations, YOU NEED TO BUY PROFCAST. Wow, you don’t get much better of an endorsment than that (I don’t normally shamelessly push products, but this one will really help your teaching).
ProfCast is very easy to use. You just compose your presentation in Keynote (PowerPoint will also work if you really love uninspiring presentations that lock up on you) and drop it into ProfCast. Then, press record and you’re off to the races. At the conclusion of your presentation, ProfCast will open a wizard that will lead you through the podcast formatting process. I would post an example of my tests, but my built in microphone is next to useless, so as soon as I purchase a better mic I’ll upload a presentation.
It is a hot tool … I hear from the developers that the next version will blow our socks off.
Nice, I can’t wait until they roll it out.
Very interested but intimidated… is there a sample podcast made in profcast that can be viewed on the web. I really want to see one.
You can view my podcasts that I made with ProfCast. Just click the “Learning Resources” page and it will have a link that will take you to iTunes so that you can subscribe to the podcast for free (you need to download iTunes first though, it’s also free from apple.com).
