Students at Woodlands Academy in Castle Rock, Colorado use podcasting to produce 'Owl Bytes'; a weekly student-produced show chronicling the history of technology.
It's actually more of a video podcast, or vodcast, because it displays images and links in sync with the audio narrative that plays. It demonstrates student ownership over a project, and could obviously be extrapolated into other areas.
I chose this podcast because it focused on technology, and I am the technology education teacher at our school. I am considering using this podcast in my classroom to introduce my students to the idea of student-generated content in podcasts, and also to suggest the serial format as one that we can also employ - episodes in a series, rather than one huge master work.
I learned a thing or two about the history of technology from this podcast, and comment both the teacher and students on a job well done!
