Seems like everyone is talking about podcasting! It’s not surprising, since podcasting is such a versatile tool for the classroom. If you haven’t heard, podcasting is a way to put audio recordings on the Internet so that listeners can easily find and “subscribe” to them. It’s sort of like radio, sort of like a magazine, and lots of fun!
Sure, you can learn a lot by listening to podcasts, but we think the real learning experience is to create your own. Similar to movie making, it involves scriptwriting, planning, collaboration, editing and publishing– but can be done with very basic equipment, is easy to learn, and takes very little time or money.
We’ve put together a short PDF handout for students and teachers about how to get started podcasting. It’s got some quick how-tos, great links and ideas for student projects.
