Nathan and Jane,
Hello Nathan and Jane, I am a first time poster to your blog, and I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for educating me about the incredible benefits of podcasting within a classroom. I took the time to research Portable Radio and Portable PD, and I read your article in the last ETFO magaizine. This has resulted in me taking the steps necessary to create my own classroom podcast (even though it’s late in the school year). I have created MPRadio.ca, and I look forward to posting my first student generated podcast within the next week (at this time all I have is an introduction that I recorded to inform listeners what to expect from the podcast). Please check it out when you have time and let me know what you think. Thanks again for providing the inspiration to do this!
