Are you a blogger? Do you use a blog with your students? If you do, you NEED to check out Odiogo. Odiogo is a simply, free, way to get your blog translated from text to speech. Just like an RSS feed, students can subscribe to the audio updates of your blog. (They can even use iTunes to save it to their iPod. Talk about on-the-go learning!) It took me about 4 minutes to set this up for my blog. It has amazing applications for education. For example, every activity that you put on your blog for students would be read to them. They could also save recordings of your blog activities and listen to them later for reinforcement and review. This resource is amazing. You MUST check it out. If you'd like an example, click on the ODIOGO icon on the right edge of this blog. (Thanks to Ann Leanness for sharing this wonderful resource!)
