Podcasting in the classroom Advert

13 March 16:00, Podcasting in the Classroom

Podcasts are a great way to share the learning journey taking place in school or at home. The beauty of podcasting is that it doesn’t need to be a face to face activity as they can be recorded remotely, edited easily and shared from any location.

Podcasts can easily become part of any learning activity. They can help staff and students reflect, review and reinforce their learning in a number of key areas. They also provide excellent opportunities for collaborative and cooperative learning approaches. Planning and producing a Podcast doesn’t need to take a lot of work but can be a excellent way to develop literacy skills in pupils. For staff, sharing a podcast can be an excellent way to showcase the excellent work taking place in your classroom, introduce new topics for learners, or cohost with like minded teachers looking to make an impact on student creativity.

Podcasting can be carried out with ease and little equipment. An iPad, a microphone, an app and an idea are all you need to get started with producing a series of informative podcasts that show that everyone truly can create.
