Hey bloggers!
Today we have been podcasting! Podcasting is an excellent tool for learning. Students and teachers are able to use this tool to record and make available information for other people to listen to. Essentially a Podcast is an audio file uploaded to be made available in a format which can be used with MP3 players. This learning tool is easily accessible for students of all ages, with minor teacher input for early years students and will give students the opportunity to listen to teachers podcasts or podcasts of their peers and to reflect on their learning. Podcasting could provide an excellent method of assessing students knowledge in a medium relevant to them (Engagement Theory). Podcasting would also be very useful as a step-by-step instruction resource for students with learning difficulties or who benefit from audio learning opportunities. I think podcasting will be a very effective learning tool in any classroom.
