New Resource for Homeschoolers
Chicago, IL-January 18th, 2005- Now there is a new, free way for homeschooling families to get news and curriculum reviews, as well as homeschooling content that involves the auditory. That way is called podcasting. Kim Campbell and Ken Bradley have put together a podcast for parents and kids that they are very excited about developing. A podcast is like an audioblog, or a radio show, which one can listen to on their computers or on MP3 players.
Homeschool Habitat is a half hour podcast show that focuses half on the issues parents enjoy, by providing news and discussions about homeschooling philosophies, as well as reviews. The second part of the show is addressed to homeschooled children and it includes mini-lessons in English, History, Math and Science, as well as content by other homeschooled kids. It will focus on short, fun, hands-on lessons and active learning.
Kim and Ken are homeschooling parents who have created Home Zine and Relaxed Homeskool, a zine and blog about the homeschooling culture. To find out more, contact Kim Campbell at kimcampbell@speakeasy.net
UPDATE: Here’s the link to the podcast. Kim sounds exactly how I imagined she would.
