Exploratorium: Teacher Institute: Podcasts [iTunes]
Created by science teachers for science teachers, the Teacher Institute Podcasts
are five-minute podcasts that give educators science facts, science history, and pedagogy tips for new teachers. The
podcasts are hosted by the Exploratorium in San Francisco, and support for the project comes from the National
Science Foundation, The Noyce Foundation, the Carnegie Corporation of New York, and others. Visitors can browse
through the podcast series, and they will find thoughtful and fun suggestions on how to make a straw oboe, how to
better manage the classroom, and how to build a Brazilian instrument called the cuica. Also, visitors can read up on the
Teachers Institute's summer institute program for science educators or sign up to receive new podcasts via iTunes or
RSS. Read
