Why Podcasts? How do we do a podcast?
Podcast? What’s that?
Have you ever thought of doing a podcast? Do you even know
what a podcast is? A podcast is a digital recording of someone talking and
giving instruction; you can even make your own podcasts. They're downloadable
through the internet and iTunes. You can also listen to podcasts through your
mp3 player. If you have never recorded a podcast they are not hard to do. In
fact, podcast are very simple to record and listen to. It’s a wonderful way to
learn and even teach with. Podcast have an ease of access and they are convenient.
A podcast could help you with a lesson or perhaps anything that you are having
trouble learning. For instance, you can go to iTunes and search different
podcasts for the specific lesson or taught information.
"Listening-Comprehension-Podcasting"
discussed children learning the Hebrew language and other vocabulary. The children
used the SMARTBoard and podcast to make definitions of Hebrew words. It was
very useful and allowed the students to explore the Hebrew language and see how
a podcast works. It is said that a child is required to hear a word 70 times before
it is committed to memory. The word must be used in a context that refers to
the definition for it to actually be understood.
"Benefits of Podcasting in the Classroom," by Joe Dale was a very creative and useful clip. He thoroughly
described the benefits podcasting offers to a classroom. Podcasting doesn't just
have to be used in the classroom it can also be used at home. What if the
student is sick and misses a few days of class? Podcasting is a wonderful
technique that students can use to offer distance learning techniques. Parents
can also use podcasting as a source of information. They can see what their
children are learning in the classroom and they can get involved in their child’s
education. Podcasting is a great source to help and promote creativity and
innovation. I would recommend Joe's post to a lot of teachers, and I would encourage
them to promote this clip to their class if they do in fact use podcasting.
"Judy Scharf Podcast Collection" is a post that
explains in great detail what a podcast is and how to create your very own
podcast. A podcast is very similar to a “radio style” talk show. A podcast can
include not only a person’s voice, but it also can include music and specific
sounds. Podcast is a term that came from iPod and broadcast. You can listen to
a podcast almost anywhere. You can use your mp3, iPod, iTunes, and YouTube. You
can search and download podcasts from iTunes. Podcasts are shareable pieces of
information and are viewable with millions of people through the internet. You
can make your own podcasts, which she refers you to a link, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hrBbczS9I0.
Judy also refers you to all the required items to make a podcast, such as a
microphone, software, and a computer.

"For instance, you can go to iTunes and search different podcasts for the specific lesson or taught information. " Awkward. Perhaps you mean: For instance, you can go to iTunes and search different podcasts for a specific lesson or desired information.
"...For instance, you can go to iTunes and search different podcasts for the specific lesson or taught information. " Make definitions? What are you trying to say?
" It was very useful and allowed the students ..." What is the antecedent of It? I can't tell.
Interesting.
