It seems like each site is a little different. A few sites I couldn't get work.
I am currently looking for podcasts I can use with my drama class- to help students speak clearer and use expression. We can even make our own podcasts of stories. My
6th grade drama class works on Reader's Theater, and this would be a great way for them to "perform" to others.
In science, students can podcast what we did in class each week. I could also put on a podcast to explain science concepts. In terms of using podcasts already made, I have to find some that I could use in my classroom. This NPR "Science Friday" is a start.
ScienceFriday.com has an area of the site dedicated to teachers. This is so cool because you pick the topic you are looking for. For instance, I picked Earth Science. From there, it gives you specific objectives to choose from. Once this is picked, the site directs you to a synopsis of the podcast with a link to it. How cool is that? I will definately be using this!
