5. Why use podcasting in the primary science classroom?
Present and share their results of investigations with others – like real scientists!
Depending on the complexity of the recording it can give children a motivation to plan and write up their science work.
Assessment opportunity, they can record their views before their project and then add a new recording about what they have learnt.
