Science PodCast

I also found a great science podcast that gives a very good overview of all science topics. The podcast can be found at: http://sciencemadefun.podbean.com/. Weather, dinosaurs, human body, and space are a few of the topics covered so far in this entertaining yet informative broadcast for students. It is also listed under the Safe Sites for Children in the U.K. Listening to a podcast like this gives the students a change of pace as they are not constantly listening to me droan on about the topic at hand. After introducing the students to podcasts, it would be neat for them to model this podcast using our current topic on their own broadcast. Creating data that would be accessible to the public would encourage students to do some real research to make sure their facts are straight; therefore learning the content at a totally different level than before.
