I started Podcasting about a year ago and it is more exciting than blogging. I love podcasting maybe because i love music so much and radio programs when i was still a kid.

Martin, thanks to you. Do check out the previous 360 report on ILS, too. Interestingly, am currently working on a project developing games for higher ed. Hope we can, indeed, hear about the outcomes of your study! There are lots of interesting questions that can still be addressed, such as the value of fantastic settings for transfer, scaffolding reflection in-game, etc. Would welcome the opportunity to help, of course.

Thanks for the link, Clark, and also congratulations on the publication of the 360 Games study for eLearning Guild – both will help to inform a study that has just started at the UK MOD’s Defence Academy, looking at the possible applications of Serious Games and Virtual Environment in our HE context (principally around technology, management and leadership). I hope that we will be able to make some of the study outcomes available in due course.

I had a variety of comments on my post on podcasts, both posted on the blog and emailed to me. I realize that there is a lot of complexity to this issues, since voice is best for people with disabilities or low literacy or when people are in situations where their eyes are otherwise occupied. I also am not a television watcher, unlike most Americans, and, as was pointed out to me, this may influence my personal preferences. American Idol, anyone?
