Mathcasts from Mathtrain.com brings you video math lessons mostly hosted by middle school students. We use a Tablet PC and cover middle school mathematics. You can watch and listen to step-by-step explanations of math problems. Welcome to the Mathtrain.com with Mr. Marcos podcast. This is episode 6. In this show, "Bob" grabs an iPod, hooks up a microphone to it and goes out interviewing people about mathtrain.com. "Bob" is one of my middle school students and a complete natural, as you will hear. "Bob" speaks to a parent as they both walk down the sidewalk. This is the first time anyone here used the microphone-enabled iPod. Bob had no headphones, no training on how to use the iPod and no script. The complete interview is spur of the moment. This is only the beginning for our future use of the recordable-iPod. The ease of use and the mobility of the iPod has opened-up new and exciting possibilities for us.
