Podcasting

Podcasting is when you can use a recording to help with learning. You can record a story you’re reading and have it play while you show the book. You can record directions to a project and have it saved on a file that everyone can access for those who can’t read. You can use it for many things. I found podcasting a very fun tool. I downloaded the required programs for it, and just played around recording myself and moving stuff around and making new things. For my podcast, I read the book Owl Moon and recorded it. It is something you can do for a class, especially if you have children that are hard of hearing, they can listen to this recording through headphones specially designed for them. I suggest using this for many things, it can be for any subject, and can especially be used for foreign languages. You could also make a PowerPoint and record what you were going to say, so people doing distant learning can watch the PowerPoint and hear the lecture as well.
