Podcasting: (iPOD broadCAST) “An audio broadcast that has been converted to an MP3 file or other audio file format for playback in a digital music player or computer.” (PC Magazine)
An iPod is not required to listen or create podcasts!
Podcasts can easily be found on iTunes or Educational Podcast Network (http://www.epnweb.org/).
Once you determine a file you would like to try, click on the file and your computer should begin playing. Common podcasts include NPR This I Believe, National Geographic, and Yogamazing.
Many educators are utilizing podcasts to go beyond the traditional classroom setting and share with a world-wide audience.
Students can create a recorded version of their presentation or record a script from a writing assignment.
Teachers are also creating podcasts to distribute homework, lectures, and school announcements.
To create podcasts or to have your students create podcasts, see the library media specialists for assistance.
