Sharing a Podcast

Sharing the Podcast

There are 2 main ways you can share the podcast, they aren't exclusive so you can do both.

  1. Sharing the Podcasts with Podcast applications:
    You can share a link which can be used in other podcast applications, this allows students to use the inbuilt features of those applications such as offline viewing.
  2. Sharing the Podcast directly in theBox:
    You can directly share the theBox link, students will be able to access the media in their web browser. This is a good backup for students that are unable to get their podcast application working.

     

Sharing the Podcasts with Podcast applications

  1. Go to theBox, http://thebox.unsw.edu.au/
  2. Click on 'Podcasts'


     
  3. Click on the Podcast you want to share


     
  4. Click on the info icon


     
  5. Copy the 'Feed URL'


     
  6. This URL can be shared to your students, they can use it in their own podcasting apps to access your podcast.
    Take note that some apps do not support manually adding podcasts via URL and would not work with theBox podcasts.

     

Sharing the Podcast directly in theBox:

  1. Go to theBox, http://thebox.unsw.edu.au/
     
  2. Click on 'Podcasts'


     
  3. Click on the Podcast you want to share


     
  4. Copy the browser URL


     
  5. Podcasts are public so you can share this URL to your students and they can view it.



    Take note that there is an edit button on the screenshot, students do not have the permission to edit the videos.
