Podcast

Today in class we learned about podcasts. It's pretty much a way for people to create radios on the internet. In my reading instruction class I am doing a big literacy assignment on a book titled The Higher Power of Lucky. I found a podcast on the Childrens Book Radio website that reviewed this book ( podcast #11). Overall it was good, it gave a nice summary of the book. However, I didn't like that it gave additional information at the beginning. I thought it was a little silly that the book review didn't even start until about 3 minutes into the podcast. The podcast was a little too long as well. I don't think the summary needed to be that long. For my first experience with a podcast I would have to say it was just alright. Maybe I was expecting too much, but I will continue to find podcasts that are informational and and exciting.
