I watched the video called "The Benefits of Podcasting in the classroom." I thought this was very educational. Clearly I have learned that there are many benefits to this new art. The teacher not only provides why it is important to include podcasts in your curriculum, but he used some scenarios to get his point across better. When a child is sick, she can not be penalized for staying at home anymore because she has access to the teacher's daily lectures through podcasts. Parents can take a glimpse into what their children are learning each and every day, as well.
Joe Dale allows his students to dive into this new technology by giving them the opportunity to create their own podcasts/videocasts. Ultimately, this "promotes creativity and innovation." The students interact with each others, which builds their teamwork skills and allows them to gain confidence in their school work.
