Podcasting is an inexpensive way to get students interested in a variety of subjects and to increase integration of subject matter easily. In addition, it is very good for visually impaired students.
Podcasting involves having students create scripts of data they research and write, placing them online, so they can be played or downloaded on devices such as iPods or computers. The software is largely free, and some of it allows the use of music and more.
Do your students a favor and explore this option!
