Using Audacity for Audio Podcasting

Most of the tutorials I found on Audio Podcasting recommended Audacity as the software tool to use to record, edit, and save a podcast as an MP3. I used Audacity to teach some of my former 5th grade students to create audio podcasts.
Audacity is a free download. You can dowload the program at
http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/
In order to save your files as MP3, You'll need to download the LAME MP3 encoder - also a free download.

The following link will take you to an excellent tutorial on how to use Audacity:
