I've used podcasts a little bit in my classroom in the past. Grammar Girl is a pretty well known Podcast and I used it a time or two to help me explain tricky grammar concepts. (I also listened to the ABC show Lost's podcast when this program was at it's height.)I came across a podcast that features winners of the Isinglass Teen Read Award Nominees and winners. This award is designed, nominated, voted on, and awarded entirely by teens in New Hampshire. I get the impression it's similar to the Beehive Awards here in Utah. I like that these are books that have already been vetted by our target audience and I like podcasts, because they allow me to multi-task. For example, I can write a blog post about podcasting while listening to said podcast.
Here's the link to listen to booktalks on the award's nominees and winners:
