Thing 14: Podcasting

Even though 'podcast' is a widely used term these days, I really did not know what a podcast was before we were given this assignment. After working with podcasts I feel that they can be of tremendous use in class by allowing a convenient means of communicating information to parents and students.

I came across this podcast named Absolute Science. It discusses topics like finding a cure for HIV, bird flu, obesity science, the science behind peoples' risky behavior and if science can make cigarettes safer.

Donna found a podcast named "Lab Out Loud." I found it to be pretty neat.

I will be exploring podcasts to see which ones can be incorporated into my units next year.
