Podcasting the HMSC

Visitors can now tune in to a podcast of short videos describing the center's exhibits, the work of HSMC researchers and what goes on behind the scenes to keep the public aquarium healthy and functioning.

The videos, produced by Oregon Sea Grant Communications, can be downloaded to your personal computer, iPod or other Internet-equipped hand-held audio/video player.

Download the videos at home to get a preview of what's in store when you come to Newport, load them onto your iPod to bring along as a portable guide when you arrive - or check out an iPod from our docent and use it to help you understand the center's interactive exhibits.

It's all part of a larger effort to understand more about how people learn in "free-choice" settings such as the Visitor Center.
