Podcasting in the classroom

This week we tried podcasting. I think podcasting is a great resource for the classroom, especially with younger students. They love to hear their own voices and enjoy playing with computers so why not combine the two!? Students can share information using their voices in a variety of different projects. Teachers can also use podcasting to keep in touch with families outside of the classroom or even to make daily announcements. I think it would be a great tool to keep in the back of your mind as you plan your curriculum. I think students would really enjoy this.


(My podcast coming soon)



Below are a few sites that offer educational podcasts to listen to:

http://education.podcast.com


http://epnweb.org has several links to podcasts based on a variety of topics. There is also a section for student work within the classroom. These are separated by elementary, middle and secondary school.
