Goals for Weekend #2

I have quite a few goals for weekend #2. I have never used Inspiration and have played briefly with Kidspiration. I would like to become familiar enough with these programs to use them for applications in my classroom. I am fairly adept at producing your basic powerpoint. I don't know anything about adding narration or video. I really would like to be able to add video of my students to my powerpoints. I need help with animation features as well. Now....podcasting...I'm open to learning something new!
