Dear Readers
Classroom podcasts can serve as an excellent delivery mechanism for digital storytelling. It's a great tool to further motivate reluctant writers who's writing can be enhanced by the thought that their podcast exploits can be shared with the wider community. Podcasts also eliminate a lot of the hassles faced with privacy issues faced with other forms of public student identification. Podcasts can be educational and instrumentally valuable in teachings students a variety of important twenty-first century literacy skills, while also being fun. Kearsley and Shneiderman (2008) assert that technology provides an electronic learning mileux that fosters the kind of creativity and communication needed to nourish engagement.
