Task: Create your user account using the following naming protocol: First initial and first four letters of your last name. For example, KPHIL. Upload your audio. Be able to locate the RSS feed for your podcast channel. [This is a public page – it is important to not include personal information on your account – hence the cryptic name.] Work with a partner, and in the discussion thread 'Uses for Gcast,' brainstorm ways a teacher could use this website. Be sure to identify your partner at the top of your post. Lastly, get the RSS feed from your Gcast and copy it into the discussion thread for Podcast feeds.
