• Note: After adding the Podcasts tool: The first time you add and upload a podcast (mp3 file), a folder titled "Podcasts" will be created in the Resources tool. As a result, every podcast added/uploaded to the Podcasts tool, will automatically be added to the Resources Podcasts folder. Therefore, podcasts added to the Sakai course site can be accessed via both the Podcasts tool and the Resources tool.
