Music and Arts E-Learning PODCASTING Producing episodes about audio recording technology in on course:

Music and Arts E-Learning Advantages PODCASTING • Learning by producing the podcast • High motivation to make episodes individually and originally • Learning by listening to other episodes • Broadcasted and published periodically • Learning with mobile devices • Comments are supporting social learning within the group

Music and Arts E-Learning Disadvantages PODCASTING • Within LOUDBLOG we had to create each account manually (no LDAP support) • In the beginning it took too much time to record, mix and arrange • Some of the students had to arrange and mix at home, recording and mastering was done in the university audio studio • Foreign students very often have problems with our language, so it was also difﬁcult for them to record their voice in our language

Music and Arts E-Learning interactive scores

Music and Arts E-Learning Advantages interactive scores • space and time • individual learning tempo • motivation • different and interactive trainings (key, tempo, loops, recordings, …) • less to do for the teacher

Music and Arts E-Learning Disadvantages interactive scores • depends on the hardware • computers do not work at any time (power, network, ﬁle structure, …) • rights management (for installing ﬂash or shockwave player, …) • time to prepare e-learning scenarios

Music and Arts E-Learning Wordpress blogging • User accounts via novell e-directory • Better integration of multimedia content via plugins • Very common system for building web 2.0 content
