Making Podcasts

After creating a podcast in class, I can see how it could be a lot of fun for my students. It requires a lot of creativity to make a podcast interesting. The tools are fun to manipulate in creating the podcast. I could see my students using this to create newsflash type podcasts about the concepts in art. Students could also use the podcast to describe a piece of art that the listener will try to draw. I think podcasts could be a useful tool in the art room.

  1. I could see using podcasts for the purposes you've mentioned also. I'm finding more and more uses for podcasts in the classroom!

  2. I like that idea of describing the art to be created. You could have the kids create a podcast and then have them pick on or two to try and follow and see what you get out of them. Or if you are in a time crunch you could create the podcast even and have all of your kids draw from the same podcast and see how different they are!
