Thing #22 Podcasts

When looking through the different podcast directories I chose the Education Podcast Network. It is a great library of podcast and very simple to use. It broke the podcast down by subject matter and grade level. There were podcast on every subject, even classes such as dance education and career development. I listened to a podcast on the history of Jamestown. It taught where and why the colony was created along with the general history. It was very informal and educational. As a teacher you can put your podcast on The Education Podcast Network for your students or others to hear. This is a great tool for teachers as some students learn better through audio. Although I did like the site and the podcast I am not sure yet if I will use podcast in my classroom. The jury is still out on this one.
