KidCast: Global Podcasting Geography Quiz


via KidCast: "Where in the World? is a global podcasting geography quiz that is being collectively produced by students all over the world.

Students and classes from all over are recording podcast episodes that describe their communities without giving away its name or exact location.

Listeners can use geography and deduction skills to use the clues and discover the exact location. An email is given at the end of every posting, so you can email them with your guess. If you guess correctly, you'll get a postcard back from the producers!"
This activity is a great way to integrate podcasting and geography into your classroom. The Where in the World project is being sponsored by KidCast.

We are big, big fans of KidCast and Dan Schmit. If you haven't already, pick up a copy of Dan's book KidCast: Podcasting in the Classroom, or even better yet, listen to his podcast. KidCast is a "must listen" for any educator interesting in using podcasting in the classroom.
