Topics include general education and administration, educational technology, mathematics and science, English and language arts, social sciences, fine arts, physical education and health, foreign languages, and news and research, among others.

If you want to jump in and start producing your own podcast, Williams discusses the software and hardware options and helps you think through planning the content and publicizing your product.

I was so excited to receive this book. I knew nothing about podcasting. I can now say that this book has opened up a whole new world for me. I will highly recommend this book to my grandsons teachers. It is easy to read and understand. It provides a wealth of knowledge to me and I am sure to all who read it. Buy it. Use it. Has podcast links and how to.
