Podcast

Podcast!
1. A podcast is a software or hardware combination that permits download of information for the user to listen to at anytime

2.You have to subscribe or download a program that can be known as a pod catcher(iTunes etc) which can supply downloadable files. You can also have it to where it will notify you when something has changed by subscribing to it. Once you have your podcast downloaded you can open your pod catcher and listen to it at your leasure.

3.Provide audio/video content which can hold your classes attention.
Another way is for professional development. Teachers can download a podcast and listen to it at their leisure. It can also allow you to communicate effectively with parents and community.

4.There's a middle school in Mabury that uses it to add to their audio/video content and in a high school they use it for biology class.

5. I think that podcasts are a great way to think for our students. They are very much so in a technology based generation and that is what interests them! It would be awesome if we could make the classroom more apt to their daily lives and ways so they can be set up to learn and succeed.
