A podcast is a series of digital media files (either audio or video) that are released episodically and often downloaded through web syndication.
Teachers can incorporate podcasts into the classroom by placing books on tape for students to read along to. Also, teachers in the older grades can allow students to make their own pod casts, or create a pod cast for a younger grade. Podcasts are a great way for students work to last. Students are able to save this work in a paperless matter, students are able to save their work on the computer, which enables teachers to keep the students work to use for future years.
