About podcasts

The educational value of the podcasts is that it can be created from original material by students and teachers or existing audio files can be downloaded for classroom use.Creating a podcast allows students to share learning experiences. Teachers can use the technology to provide additional and revision material to students to download and review at a time that suits them.

МЕДИАОБРАЗОВАНИЕ КАК НОВЫЙ СОЦИАЛЬНЫЙ ПРИОРИТЕТ
