Podcast Project

Some helpful links in creating your podcast:
Screencast-o-matic - will be used to create your podcast; we will use the embed code to put your podcast on our wiki, export it to the network drive as a .mov, convert it to a .mp4, then upload to podbean, and ultimately iTunes
Google Docs - one of you will create a new one, and invite the other -- where you can plan your project together
Shared Interactive Whiteboard - use this to plan your project together also -- one person goes to the site, then sends the link to the other person. Nice math symbols here!!!

Due Tuesday-Notes on topic.

Topics:
Sacco & Zigerelli - Limits
Gohn & Willenkin - Related Rates
Gall & Torhan - Differentiation Rules
Conrad - Curve Sketching
Spinelli - ???
