It does, if you publish the RSS feed, which you can just as easily do in something like ANGEL, or via e-mail (you can make an itpc:// link to the content which you're serving from anywhere which will open up and subscribe you to a podcast). iTunesU is yet another window to the same data, served elsewhere. If we were approaching this like MIT, with an open courseware initiative, I could see how making things publicly searchable might be more useful. Most of the use cases I've heard from our faculty are more closely related to the desire to have authenticated media, or a "class page" just for their students (not open to the public). ./mk -- Matt Kolb <[log in to unmask]> Assistant Director Academic Technology Services Michigan State University
