Webcasts
This page will include the webcasts from the current class. The webcasts can be accessed in one of four ways:

1. Streaming video (The file will be streamed to your computer. This will work only if you have a good internet connection, but should be of the best quality and the most information)
   
2. Video podcast (The file will be downloaded to your computer and you can watch the video using Quicktime or video software or on your iPod)
   
3. Audio podcast (The .mp3 file will be downloaded as an audio file and can be played on any audio player). The AV system used to record the lectures has changed and I think it is much improved.
   
4. YouTube videos (if you have slower internet connection and/or a small device).
