-
A2 Podcasts are a wonderful tool that allow student voices to be heard. Ss can share what they learned via podcast

I'm probably going to spend a decent amount of time geeking out going over these recommended lists. Thanks for the suggestions so far
-
A2: My Ss listen to to talk about non-fiction& storytelling - some will create their own as part of
-
-
A2: Turning Ss on to consuming content in this way is also very valuable! They love their earbuds, let's take advantage!

-
A2: Help students access, evaluate, and use these resources to create meaning for themselves
-
is paid media hosting and you can pay as little as $5 per mo. I pay $7

Great idea to use as a hook! Also to help students visualize a text.
-
It also made housework a whole lot more enjoyable!
-
-
-
. loved! Used it to publishing their learning, "radio show style" You can really see their personalities shine through

-
A3: Podcasting is important for Ss. It gives Ss a forum to learn to use their voice and the power of language.
-
the power of voice. My show, my way and I share what I want with anyone who will listen and welcome me into their life
-
Anyone know someone having primary Ss creating podcasts? Trying to find an easy to use tool.
-
A3 Podcasts allows for PD / learning on demand and everywhere. I often take walks "with" as I listen to HouseofEdTech
-
Do you think Google Voice would work?
-
fr Alaska has MS students recording and awesome daily show.

-
. They work awesome for publishing!
-
What is good practice when it comes to how often you should publish podcasts? Weekly, daily, etc.?
-
A1: techeducator podcast from ... For teachers, by teachers. Diverse and fresh topics with incredible guest speakers!
-
A3: I think it's a great way for students to access info in another way. They read, they watch, they need to listen too!
-
Q3 Why is podcasting an important medium for everyone to know about?
-
-
Whatever schedule you can keep up with!
-
consistency is key. If you tell your audience you're weekly, you better publish weekly.
-
A3: Can fit well for students who want to orally voice their ideas and share their learning. It's all about choice.
-
How often do you record podcasts?
-
A3: Podcasts offer the consumer anytime, anywhere, time-shifted access to content that can entertain, and teach
-
A3: fills downtime w/learning (walking the dog, driving to work) both for Ss and Ts - for Ss, tech helps us "get them where they live"
-
A3: Sharing our stories and communicating matters. Our voices make it more meaningful and today it's easier than ever to share
-
A3: Also helpful for differentiation if students need extra scaffolding. Targets diff learning styles too!
-
-
A3) I think it is a great way to get PD on your own schedule, whether it is for work or fun
-
A3: Podcasting is more intimate than many other mediums, so they can be an important way of connecting creator to audience.
-
Text isn't everyone's forte. Voice provides inflection & nuance
-
Good rule of thumb is to be consistent. So, every wk, 2 wks, etc. I have podcasts that release on the same day ea wk.
-
A3 Podcasting is a tool that schools and students can use to share their story.
-
A3. The medium is the message. Not everyone learns or demonstrates understanding the same way
-
It is! There's a chat for this very topic - - Sun nights @ 8:30P est
-
Definitely - and novel mediums help Ss understand the relationship b/w form and function
-
A3 it gives people a voice and allows you to share ideas and good practices!
-
Thanks, I'll be sure to check it out.
-
A3: Anyone can attempt to create and my decide to stop, you should never stop consuming content via podcasts. If you're not,
-
Hey ... long time no see...lol
-
Q4: Students MUST always be given opportunities to creatively design & share work within their local & global learning community.
-
A3 podcasting = convenience - it's easy, sparks creativity, promotes individual learning opportunities
-
A3: podcasting makes info more mobile & accessible too; listen in the car, exercising, etc
-
Thank you ALL for the opportunity to learn tonight.
-
A3 Podcasts are a wonderful source for personalized PD. Just shared this w my Ts two wks ago.
-
A3. It could be a great tool for analyzing texts, close reading, etc.
-
I've started the for people who want get their podcast questions answered LIVE in an awesome way https://t.co/lNBrrxokRD

Thanks being with us Dr. G We always learn from your thoughts.
-
Time to put my angels to sleep. Thank you all for a great conversation & learning resources to help Ss create.
-
A3: it's got so much flexibility and creativity It's a different medium. It's voice and music. It's higher order thinking!
-
Q4: Is it more valuable for students to consume podcasts or to create their own?
-
A4: They just have diff types of value - listening helps them learn about the form or the content, creating gives them voice
-
A4: Ss need to both create AND consume information across different mediums. Period. It's what makes them digitally literate.
-
A4: I think that like fostering a love for reading, we should encourage students to consume various (good) podcasts b4 creating.
-
I think it could be a cool project for Ss to do
-
We listened to Mr. Zoller SS Podcasts!
-
-
-
A4: I think it is equally important and depends on the learner and their style.
