Podcasts are one of the latest hot topics on the internet, but now they have become more and more of a standard in technologically progressive classrooms. Some teachers have become internationally famous for their podcasts, which are audio or video files that can be downloaded onto mp3 players or subscribed to through rss feeds. Many teachers have been using podcasts for years, as you can see from Eric Langhorst's amazing page. I am still in the shadow of some great people here, but I would like to begin making some podcasts on my own for the next school year. It seems that they can be used as a study tool by having the teacher record their classroom lectures or go over the notes before a big exam, or they can be used to record projects by students. I am really looking forward to getting started on this project this summer. If any of my students are reading this blog in the summer, let me know if you have any ideas for classroom or student podcasts!
