Is podcasting a valuable tool? Well so far yes it is. The podcast I created for this assignment will be put into service for my Economics class on Monday. I have been using a class blog for my economics course and I plan to my next assignment via podcast. This podcast reflects on the "Wealth Game" which students will be participating in on Monday. After the activity students will have to post on which determinant of wealth is most important to them for future success. Students will demonstrate knowledge by posting their response on the blog via written text. In the future I hope this will change because creating a podcast is a different type of challenge that I would like my students to experience. When completing this assignment I had to do many takes before I got it right (and there was still room for improvement!). Using a podcast saved me time because I would have had to write a novel to explain everything I said in the podcast, plus its something different which keeps students engaged.
