neadodsAfter having gotten all excited about Open Courseware and iTunes U, I've been exploring both... and finding that neither is quite suiting what I'm looking for.
I'm listening while I'm driving, so it can only be audio, and in a clear voice. I'm used to The Teaching Company, which has a professor speaking directly into a mike (the later editions don't even have a live audience, however respectfully silent.)
However, most of the juiciest-looking MIT open courses don't have an audio component at all, whereas iTunes U is almost exclusively audio, but it's audio created with a microphone in class - lots of student talking, time spent discussing school issues, muffled teacher voices.
Grr. Argh.
Anyone know any good educational podcasts? Shakespeare, literature, history? Something like Dr. Kiki's science hour would be a lot closer to what I'm looking for than what I'm finding in the online universities.
