Product Description
Finally--a technology that helps bridge the gap between content delivery and today's 'digital native' students. Podcasting is a method of making audio or video content available regularly via the Web. It blends topical research and knowledge collection with a radio- or TV-style presentation that's perfect for the attention span and learning style of today's students.
Author Bard Williams begins with a complete introduction to podcasting, including hardware and software needs, integrating podcasts into your curriculum, and managing podcasts in the classroom. Williams then introduces a smorgasbord of education-related podcasts sorted by curriculum area. Part user manual, part curriculum planning tool, and part implementation survival guide, The Educator's Podcast Guide is an essential resource for any educator who would like to integrate this exciting new tool into the classroom.Also available: PowerPoint Magic - ISBN 1564842355

I was so excited to receive this book. I knew nothing about podcasting. I can now say that this book has opened up a whole new world for me. I will highly recommend this book to my grandsons teachers. It is easy to read and understand. It provides a wealth of knowledge to me and I am sure to all who read it. Buy it. Use it. Has podcast links and how to.

Bard Williams is a veteran educator and tech guru who has written 300 articles and a dozen or so books on things technological. He runs an education marketing and consulting company called Techthree.
Part One of the Guide includes an introduction to podcasting, how to integrate podcasts in the classroom, and how to evaluate podcasts for classroom use. Part Two provides overviews of about 100 education podcasts arranged by content area. Topics include general education and administration, educational technology, mathematics and science, English and language arts, social sciences, fine arts, physical education and health, foreign languages, and news and research, among others.
If you want to jump in and start producing your own podcast, Williams discusses the software and hardware options and helps you think through planning the content and publicizing your product.
