The Benefits of Podcasting in the Classroom

In Joe Dale's video of  The Benefits of Podcasting in the Classroom,  He explains how the use of podcasting is a resourceful tool that can be used in the classroom or outside of the classroom. Podcasting is a tool that more teachers are starting to take advantage of. Podcasting can be used for individual learning centers in the classroom, or for an entire lecture to be played at the convenience of the student at home.  Podcasting can be a very beneficial tool  for students who are unable to attend class. If a student has missed a great deal of in class time and  the teacher has recorded the lecture, the student can view the podcast to not fall behind in class. This is something that I wish I had as a student in school. Podcast can even be done by the student, which is engaging and learning at the same time. Podcasting can be fun and  exciting way for the students to learn and teach other students.
