Friday Matinee: Podcasting in the Classroom


As you know, we now have a room set up where you or your students can create podcasts.  Before you do that, you may want to watch this webinar on Podcasting for Personalized Learning.  Jen Giffen does a wonderful job talking about podcasting and she is a podcaster herself!  Here's the description for the webinar:


"Podcasting is a great way to engage in professional metacognition and gives students authentic writing opportunities that can be shared with an authentic audience. Whether you are new to podcasts or you love them and have been waiting to get started, this is the session for you. Join Jen Giffen of #ShukesAndGiff The Podcast to learn about podcasting - from what to listen to for inspiration, to name picking, to logo design, to ways to record & launch. We will share our successes and challenges. No fancy equipment, no costs, just an idea, and some passion. You and your students will be ready to start recording tomorrow!"

In order to watch, you will have to register, but if you are interested in podcasting, it will be worth it!

For more information on teaching podcasting, here's a curriculum guide for educators from NPR.
