A podcast is a multimedia digital
file made available on the Internet for downloading to a portable media player,
computer, etc. A podcast is an easy way to appeal to audio learners which makes
it an essential teaching tool. A podcast appeals to the attention of
creativity, students will find creating their own podcast for a class
assignment a fun and exciting exercise. A podcast posted on a teacher's blog
gives students an easier way to get information outside of school hours.
For Technology in Education, we created as a group, a podcast which
spoke about a the issues in education.
We asked a few people, security guard, teacher and students, what
they felt were missing from their classroom. Some said furniture, some said space,
some just wished they had a room.
A podcast could be used as a narrated story for
comprehension. Another use for a podcast would be putting a topic to song or
have the students create a song about a particular topic as an assignment.
