Overview"Like many educators, you may already take advantage of podcasts in your classroom, but have you ever had your students do the creating? It's easy, and you'll be surprised what students learn from this technology. Podcasting is a powerful tool for teaching 21st-century literacy - the literacy of social processes. Not only will students learn technology skills that they can use throughout their lives, but podcasting also connects and applies students' learning to the world around them. Understanding the audience requires students to empathize with others, and developing and posting relevant, engaging podcasts helps students become active, engaged members of society. In section one, """"Student-Powered Podcasting"""" explains what podcasts are and why your students should create them. It leads Mac and PC users through tutorials for two software editing programs, GarageBand and Audacity, to enable you and your students to dive right into podcasting. Section two includes 16 stand-alone units containing overviews, procedures for implementation, assessment rubrics, and links to examples. These classroom-tested projects are flexible and meant to be changed, adapted, and expanded based on your students, subject matter, and resources available. This book shows educators of all experience levels how to use podcasting as a vehicle for curriculum reform. It includes 16 adaptable podcasting units on a variety of topics. It contains discussions on legal and ethical considerations, a copyright and fair use quiz, and a set of podcasting rules for the classroom. Its assessment rubrics are correlated to a variety of national standards."
