Ewan McIntosh explains why edublogging and edupodcasting are changing the face of teachers’ and students’ lives.

This was recorded from a BBC Radio Show called “Blogs and Pods”

The following is from Ewans post on the show

Teachers have always shared their ideas within
their own staffroom, but now teachers’ staffroom chat can be more
in-depth, more wide-reaching than ever before. Meanwhile, kids are
already discovering the joys of online social networking. How can
education take advantage of this to increase motivation for learning
and improve the processes we use to teach and learn?

The Benefits of School 2.0

I was sitting in maths earlier this week, learning about some formula that I’m almost certain I’ll never see again after my exam in May (unless I fail that is…) when I turned to the guy sitting next to me and told him about the Blog I wrote a couple of days before hand, and how there were people out there taking a serious interest in my opinion… which to be honest really surprised me. When I had finished the story there was a pause. He then asked me, “What’s a Blog??”… My only thought after that was if only he knew. If only he had discovered.
