You are on a job interview. You've been asked if and how you would use podcasting with your students. How would you respond?

As a language teacher , I would highly be interested in using podcasting with my students. The point here comes to not only ask students to download certain podcasts to repeat words and have an all time accessable materials to improve pronunciation and study vocabs. The ability to link what students listen to on the podcasts with post activities to be performed in the classroom that help them even go beyond what that podcast has to offer, is one key to do that. So, using podcasting hould be highly planned and integrated in a way that serves our desired outcomes that will lead at the end to empower students to create or add podcasts that serve that as well.

Inas-this is a wonderful example of extending the learning outside the classroom and then bringing it back into the classroom to reinforce and advance students' competencies. If you were on an interview, you might want to give a specific example. Could you think of one?

...and how the tool is connected to the class goal so it can be meaningful for the learning experience. Personally, I used them frequently as "realia" sources to develop other activities.

I can't find my sticky notes for this web site. I did it 3 times. If you can see any of them, please let me know. Thanks
