Here is a series of four instructional videos I put together to show you how to use Audacity to create a podcast and then to make it web-ready with iTunes. I used the SMART Board Recorder to make these videos, and I had to compress them quite a bit, so please forgive the less than perfect quality! Hopefully they are helpful to you. Stay tuned too, as my next podcast is coming soon and I’ll be interviewing someone who had won an award for his use of podcasting. It has allowed him to put the human side back in to teaching.
Anyway - on to your own podcast! I’d love to hear your results so please let me know how you go.
Part 1: The Microphone Check
Part 2: Making and Recording Noises!
Part 3: Importing Music and Sound Effects
Part 4: Making Your Podcast Web-ready with iTunes

Thanks for the instructions, Jess. I have found them easy to understand, at just the right pace for a layperson like myself. I am still trying to master the podcast! No luck because of microphone problems. The one I borrowed from school doesn’t seem to want to be recognised, or just doesn’t work - not sure which. I’ll have to consult the techs at work.
Once that’s done, I’ll be back on your site!
