Area students among first to post classwork online - DAN SIMMONS, La Crosse Tribune
It’s a 2015 assignment, written in yellow chalk on a 1950s-style blackboard. “Podcast approval due today!” “Final copy of podcast due on Friday!” Welcome to this week’s assignments in Jeanne Halderson’s seventh-grade language arts class at Longfellow Middle School. She and team-teacher Elizabeth Ramsay teach all subjects to 58 seventh-graders. Last fall, the class became the second in the U.S. to create, edit and produce “podcasts.” The word combines “ipods,” portable audio devices for listening to and recording music, and “broadcast.”
