Audacity? Yes!
I had a good deal of experience with the basics of Audacity due to working with foreign language classes at the high school, but had never considered all of its affordances. Podcasting is not something I've been very familiar with - I knew the concept, but hadn't really listened to any or thought about how to make them. Since last week, I've thought of several ideas to share with teachers - an "interview" with a person (or character from literature) that they are studying is one that has gotten some interest. I'm looking forward to helping develop the idea and work with the class on the project.

That sounds like such a fun idea! Another idea could be to make podcasts that advertise for a book. Also, with the idea of interviewing, wouldn't it be cool if the interviewer "forgot" to introduce the name of the person and the students had to figure it out? They could learn how to use the clues in the interview to create a search for the person. I love that you are taking the lead in your school to introduce new ideas!
