bytesize science

The American Chemical Society (ACS) has created a podcast series called Bytesize Science, aimed at younger students. Now all we've go to do is get them to team up with voicethread so that they can add some images! I've only listened to one podcast, and they did an ok job interjecting some audio sound effects, but staring at a little marker indicating how far along the podcast is is not too captivating. I'll need to listen to some more, to see how they might be incorporated into a classroom setting.... then again, they're only 3ish minutes long, so where is the harm in sharpening science listening skills for 3 minutes a week?
