Thing 19

I have used podcasts before, mostly through Resa. I thought that the Resa video was very informative.
As I was searching for podcasts, I was on educational overload, so I searched for things that I would enjoy instead of things for my classroom. I remember riding in the car with my Dad as he listened to NPR and I always liked the Fresh Air program. When I googled Podcasts: NPR was one of the sites that came up so I copied the link to that. http://www.npr.org/templates/rss/podlayer.php?id=1090

I also used itunes to search and subscribed to one called College Humor Originals which takes pop culture and satirises it. It was very funny. Pokeman- Gotta Buy them All was one of my favorites.

My goal is to develop a podcast lesson plan for my Advanced Language Arts Classes next year as a pilot. This year one of my students won a national essay contest sponsored by Samsung and 5 new mini camcorders were delivered to my room today!!! Another coincidence.
