Blog Post #4
Podcasts are a very good way to help teach children a different way of learning. It has a more hands-on, creative outlook on learning instead of the same old lecture style learning. I like the way she took each student, one-on-one, and recorded them reading. It helps students step out of their comfort zones and be interactive with their classmates. I also like how Ms. Tolisano made booklets so the first-graders could follow along while listening. Then after listening, the students write down what they thought about the experience, which provides feedback to the teacher. Podcasts are a very useful tool in the classroom. I will be sure to use podcasts in the classroom because there are a lot of scholars that make podcasts that will be useful in my high school history classrooms. I can have them listen to it and write an essay on what they thought about the topic.

ReplyDeleteI completely agree that having students record voice clips for a podcast can help them step out of their comfort zones and interact more with their classmates. Not only can you have your students write essays about the podcasts they listen to. They could also record their own podcasts where they talk about what the learned from listening to other podcasts!
ReplyDeleteRemember to add working links and at least one picture, which alt and title modifiers, to each blog post! I also think you could have written more about what you learned from reading the articles on podcasting. I suggest looking at the blogs of our fellow EDM310 students, past and present, to get a better idea of how your blog posts should look. Good luck!
