Exploring Podcasts

Although podcasting is still a relative newcomer to schools and pupils, there are now thousands of published podcasts to which you may wish to subscribe: from recipes and rap to astronomy and art.  The potential impact on teaching and learning is profound.

Podcasting offers opportunities to:

• allow pupils to develop content and share their work with a potentially enormous national / international audience
• enable school staff to celebrate their school's achievement and events

Therefore, these pages aim to provide a current selection of:

• subject-based podcasts - such as science and music podcasts
• school-based podcasts - such as Downs FM radio.
• hotlists
• case studies
• teaching and learning ideas
