Teachers Podcast Poems

November 5th will go down in history for many reasons, not the least of these will be the podcasts made by Luton teachers to reflect the BBCs 'Off By Heart' project enticing children to learn and recite poems off by heart!

It was a murky day as we assembled at the Luton Learning Resources Centre and a full house was promised for this podcasting session. Amazingly some teachers turned up begging to be allowed to come to the session ... we even let them in !

The session began with a look at how people could use digital sound in their classrooms ... all the way from getting the text on a page to be read to keeping a reading record. We moved on to the functionality behind the software of the day - Podium - and simply had a great deal of fun with Podcasting.
