Harvard Extension School Chooses Switchpod.Com to Host Course Podcasts.

PITTSBURGH -- Switchpod.Com, a division of Wizzard Software (OTCBB:WIZD), announced today that Computer Science E-1, Understanding Computers and the Internet at the Harvard Extension School, has selected the Switchpod Network to host its audio and video podcasts this fall.

CSCI E-1 is part of the Harvard Extension School's Distance Education Program, which allows students to take this course for credit via the Internet. CSCI E-1 is also available - free, but not for credit - via podcast. It is the first course at the Harvard Extension School to be podcasted in its entirety in both audio and video formats. E-1 presents students with the opportunity to gain a complete understanding of computers and the Internet, so that students learn not only what they can do with each but also how it all works and why. Topics include hardware, software, the Internet, multimedia, security, website development, programming, and dotcoms. Last year's podcasts had nearly 10,000 subscribers.

"As E-1's apparent subscriber base has grown, so has its bandwidth requirements, so much so that the podcast now seems to receive one to four terabytes of downloads per month," said David Malan, Instructor at the Harvard Extension School and of the E-1 course. "We're thrilled that Switchpod has offered not only to provide E-1 with the storage it needs this term but also to keep up with its ever-increasing bandwidth requirements."

Each of E-1's lectures is recorded in video and audio formats, digitized, and posted on the course's website, where it remains available for on-demand viewing in high-resolution RealAudio and RealVideo formats, each synchronized with slideshows of lectures' slides, for registered students until term's end. Available via podcast to the public at large at no charge are the course's lectures and videos of the week, along with some sections and workshops. All of this content is available as RSS (XML) through E-1's RSS feed, allowing automatic downloads of podcasts as they are published. The podcasts can also be downloaded and subscribed to directly through iTunes or through iTunes U.

This year's podcasts include recent, newly recorded lectures and include additional content, such as its videos of the week. Offering the course in podcast format provides students with more portable access to the course's content and encourages access to a technology that the course itself explores.

"Using podcasting in higher-education institutions is a revolutionary way to accommodate busy students who need to budget their time wisely," said Jake Fisher, co-founder of Switchpod. "We are pleased to be able to provide the Harvard Extension School's CCSCI E-1 with the reliability and support it needs to create a successful learning environment."
