the eightieth episode of ventriloquy is a recording of a presentation on some preliminary findings from research into podcasting as a means of alternative assessment.
specifically, between July and August this year, my friend and colleague - William Yeo - used the production and subsequent critique of student-authored podcasts in his geography lessons on demography, with his students at the Nanyang Junior College.
he shared our findings today, at the conference of the Southeast Asian Geography Association. here's the PDF of our presentation.
if you enjoy this 12.2 MB download and would like to hear from some of the students who were involved in the project themselves, do also check out episode 68 :-)
