Using Podcasts Within Blackboard
Adding Podcasts to your Blackboard course is easy. If you have a series of Podcasts then why not add a Podcast area to your Blackboard course menu? This will list all podcasts that you later add to your course, and provide options for students to subscribe to your podcast series using aggregator software such as I-Tunes.
Adding an individual podcast is a simple process, you may add these in any content area, and they will also be listed in the Podcast course menu area mentioned above. Once your podcasts are available on Blackboard students may listen to them online or download them.
