Did you find a podcast you could use with your class? What was it and how would you use it?

I liked the BookTalks Quick and Simple which is Nancy J. Keane's daily booktalk on newly published literature. I would use this as a way to expose kids to literature without having to read the whole book myself first.
Grammar Girl's Quick and Dirty tips about wrestling with topic sentenses. I will be able to use this when doing writing activities with my class on a regular basis
Grammar Girl: Applying these into reading groups will allow the students to work at individual paces (within time allowance) and complete assignments while Im working with another group.
As the learner becomes more involved with what they will study, they must have the ability to make proper choices. Allowing them to have open access and freedom of their learning is a very scary concept.
I have found a podcast which sounds very interesting and has the possiblity to be used in the classroom. Dan Carlin's Hardcore History might be something I could use. I like anything that makes kids think about history not just memorize it. His comparison of Alexander the Great to Hilter does just that sort of thing.

I really agree with the term for the generation.(Boomerang)
I think is a great source of information to engage the students in active learning.

No, I did not find a podcast to use in my classroom today. Hopefully Sunday.
I have a few ideas for my classroom students and baseball players.

The Fitcast and Daily Boost sites were good, my students will enjoy it.
