Podcast Producer
Podcast Producer — an end-to-end solution for the creation, production, and distribution of podcasts and other media presentations — unites two of the biggest trends in education: user-created content and mobile learning. Fire up Podcast Producer, a service provided by Mac OS X Server, and spark a revolution in education at your institution.
Do It Yourself
Educators everywhere have witnessed — and contributed to — an explosion of educational content. The authorship of educational content has been democratized by the development and use of easy content-creation tools, such as Apple’s iLife and iWork digital authoring suites, and powerful new content delivery systems, such as iTunes U. From video-recorded lectures to student-created podcasts, new forms of content are enhancing teaching and learning.
Learning to Go
Mobile learning is learning that can take place literally anywhere, at any time. Mobile devices, like Apple’s iPhone, iPod, and MacBook, MacBook Air, and MacBook Pro, make it easier than ever to access educational materials, as well as collaborate and share with others in the educational community. Podcasts and other media content can be created, distributed, and synced to mobile devices, such as iPod or iPhone, allowing learners to learn when and where they choose.
Podcast Producer simplifies the process of recording content, encoding, and publishing podcasts for playback in iTunes and on iPod, iPhone, and Apple TV. It automates metadata tagging, media branding, and visual watermarking, and automatically publishes to Leopard Server’s wiki or iTunes U. A Podcast Producer system can be the engine of your institution’s mobile learning initiatives, making available relevant, locally created educational content with just a few mouse clicks. Podcast Producer is the perfect compliment to any institution’s iTunes U site.
