My fiance listens to podcasts quite frequently and I have listened with him. I have never bothered to ask how he came about having these interesting recordings on his Ipod. I don't think I honestly cared. I enjoyed them when I happened to be in his car while he was listening to them. Now, however, I am excited because I now know how these come to be on his Ipod!
I went on the Learn Out Loud website and clicked around and found an educational podcast. When I clicked on "subscribe," I was taken to ITunes and realized that I can search for podcasts on ITunes and just subscribe to as many podcasts as I would like. I am currently listening to a This American Life broadcast about Health Care. I would love to listen to Educational podcasts, however I could not find one that seemed relevant to my situation. I will keep searching for one. I do think, however, that even listening to current podcasts focused on current events could be beneficial for anyone because I am, after all, expected to be a role model for my students. Shouldn't I know what is going on in the world? So, I have decided that listening to a news podcast while grading may be a better use of my time than perhaps watching the latest episode of Gray's Anatomy.
