Kidcast #52 - The 60 Second Lecture




KidCast: Learning and Teaching with Podcasting show

Summary: Recently, my friend and colleague, Dr. Guy Trainin stopped by my office and we started talking about the podcasts. He mentioned a podcast that he discovered from Penn State called 60 second lectures. I thought, Catchy name…probably worth checking out. So I did a search and found more than just a podcast with a catchy title. I found a new form that was as beneficial, from a learning point of view, to the writer as it was the listener. During this episode, we’ll explore this form and the value that distilling ideas down may have for our development as teachers and our students’ development as communicators.
