Engage Awards announced: Podcasting Plus

Interest in podcasting is growing at UW–Madison, and new technologies enable delivery of graphics and video as a podcast. In response, the Division of Information Technology is offering awards to faculty and instructors through the Engage Program to develop enhanced podcasts.

The mission of Engage is to transform teaching and learning through technology at UW–Madison and beyond.

Podcasting Plus awards will support new uses of podcasting in instruction, using combinations of video, graphics and audio to enhance student learning. The awards provide instructors $800 and as much as 12 hours of help to integrate enhanced podcasts into their courses during spring or summer 2007.

Apply online by Nov. 19. For more information, see engage.doit.wisc.edu, e-mail engage@doit.wisc.edu or call 262-5667.
