Podcasting

For an activity in class we split into groups to create different podcasts. We just did a brief segment on the movie Aladin and why we believed everyone should have a chance to see it. With this activity I realized that anything you can lecture or tell your students, you could also post online with podcasts making your lecture public to all that were interested. Using along with programs such as D2L, students that are out of the classroom at the previous time of the lesson could view or re-view what was taught at their own pace. These podcasts allow pausing and playing which would be beneficial and helpful for students such as myself that have a harder time learning from an auditory based teaching style.
