#21 Week 9 Podcasts

I added a podcast subscription from the National Middle School association which is a necessary connection for middle school teachers, so I thought I'd see what these podcasts are like. I listened to part of one on adolescent development and it was ok, but not too exciting... The teacher tube videos are definitely more interesting to watch.

I used the Podcast Alley site to search for the podcast. They have a list of genres to choose from, and it's a good thing because all of the sites listed in top 5 or recently viewed were pretty close to porn....

The Education Podcast Network is a site sponsored by David Warlick and offers some student produced podcasts as well as professional development and teacher work. This site is nicely organized and will use this to find podcasts to demo to teachers and students.

The \ site is nice because it includes handouts with the podcasts on things like differentiation, or reading fluency...

The techSavvy Girlz site sounds interesting but their stuff requires iTunes and i don't want to put that on my computer- so I guess I don't get to hear/see that. Not so techSavvy to have content limited to iTunes-- if you ask me.
