Podcasting

​ Type in the content of your page here. In my Technology class, I read an article, "Making Waves" by Will Richardson. It discusses podcasting and its uses in education. Any ideas on how our Biology dept. could utilize podcasting this spring? One idea I had was to podcast the lab activities. Then these labs could be shared among Biology teachers. As a "digital immigrant" moving into technology, I'm reminded that activity does not equal achievement. We want to raise student achievement with technology.

Another thought. How could we utilize our present computer labs to increase the time spent by Biology students behind a computer? At another district, we assigned core classes a particular day of the week. Math had a day, Science had a day, and ELA had a day. Just some thoughts over the holidays. Larry

Welcome back from the holidays. We have finals for Fall semester coming up. The Spring semester is always busy with academics/TAKS and spring sports. Baseball is just around the corner, although the weather says differently. I refreshed my memory about podcasting over the break. Hopefully, we can show some signs of being a "digital citizen" before long. :) Larry
