Nick Falk Posted December 22, 2003 Share Posted December 22, 2003 I have had this idea that the next vehicle for schools publicising themselves to their local community should be an Internet radio station. Most schools have a website that provides information to parents and students about the running of the school and the curriculum on offer. Some have started to create of a digital curriculum and have students creating their learning material. Could this be supplemented by a schools own web radio? Is Internet radio 'an untapped treasure' as recently suggested by Glenys Hart in the December edition of Educational Computing and Technology? I have been encouraging teacher in my own school to consider the potential of in-house Internet radio programmes being made available to students and learners in the local community. Here is an Internet radio station which I have been running fo a few years.

I am teachers in other subject areas would be interested in this. Is it possible to post it in other subject areas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like an interesting idea - my computer is too old and slow for it to be a useful medium at present though! I'd be interested to hear how to set something like this up and also of any schools that are currently involved in such a project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
