Student Voice (Literally): We Feature Two Student Podcasts

Since we started this podcast back in January (look at that picture! So embarrassing!) we've been hearing about students and teachers who have also been bitten by the podcasting bug.

This week on the show, we hear two excellent examples of student podcast work. First, three 5th graders from the Park School in Brookline, MA share with us an immigrant's journey from Uganda to the United States. Then, in a segment created especially for the EdSurge podcast, three high school students from Oxon Hill High School in Maryland debate whether technology should be used more or less in school.

If you're a teacher whose students have been podcasting, we'd love to hear about it! Drop us a line at feedback@edsurge.com.
