Maybe get one of those "tie clip" microphones so that your podcasts will sound good. Too bad you can't do a video recording and setup some remote learning goodness. Go to class in your boxers and inline skates from your dorm room? :) Hey, at least then the students on the $20,000 vacation won't be distracting you with their "I'm not listening to you because I'm playing World of Warcraft right now!" looks. It might also be cool to go back and "chapter" a class after it's been recorded so listeners can find and relisten to sections they're interested in. After you're done you should gather data and find out if people used the tech or found it helpful.
