I must say, I LOVE the podcast. I have multipul subscriptions to different podcasts. Some are just rebroadcasts of radio shows:
Wait, wait don't tell me
This American Life
AM Marketplace
Sound oppinions
etc. etc.
I also listne to podcasts that are podcast specific. Meaning they are published a made exclusivly for computer podcast viewers.
CATO institue
The Tome (yea.. super geeky you may want to stay away)
Hatchling animations
First Amendment Center
etc.etc.
Can I just say that I love my iPod.
Podcasts are one of the great inventions. I can link a key speech, presenter or expert to a moodle page. Students listen to the whole podcast or to a select portion and then they go on to moodle and discuss the podcast (following set prompts).
When I'm in the car and only catch half of a really great story, or interview. I can podcast it. expose my students to it and my friends.
I absolutly LOVE podcasts.
Admitatly I don't have my kids make podcasts in the classroom. They make videos and that takes enough work as it is ;). I however could start making podcasts. That would be pretty cool.
Hmmmmmm it gets me a thinking!
