Podcasting in the Government Classroom

Abstract:

Government classrooms could use podcasting to encourage discussion about political issues and current events. Most government classrooms are held during the twelfth-grade year, right when students are becoming adults. Research shows that most seventeen and eighteen-year-olds are interested in debating critical issues and participating in their own education, rather than listening to a lecture. Podcasting provides a unique opportunity to tap into that interest and give students the chance to be creative. A government classroom could create a weekly podcast with commentary on the subjects they are covering as well as current events that correspond with those subjects. Students could also interview local government leaders or average citizens about political issues.
