Kid's Podcasts

Okay! After reading Blogs, Wikis, Podcasts by Will Richardson I must say that going to those recommeded webistes are incredible. My favorite was the "Coleycasts" from the students at Brent Coley. This would be so much more fun to do rather than a Power Point. I feel I always use Power Points or Photo Story, but this would be an incredible way for children to report their information. I am thinking when we study biographies, this would be a much better way for students to demonstrate what they have learned. They will have more fun creating a podcasts than writing ANOTHER book report. I am sure if this is their first experience with it, they will retain the information as well. I love using different forms of assessment, and this is a great idea!
