      Best Podcasts - Nicole Hennig

      Introduction

      Welcome to Best Podcasts: Children and Teens! This guide will point you to some of the best podcasts for young people. This is one volume in a set of short books I’ve put together to help you find the best audio programs to listen to (of the many thousands available).

      This guide is for parents and kids, and also for librarians and educators — anyone who recommends podcasts for young people.

      How to Listen

      If you’re not familiar with podcasts or how to listen to them, read the chapter later in this book called How to Listen for some tips.

      About the Author

      I’m Nicole Hennig, an expert in mobile technologies for libraries. In my 14 years of experience at the MIT Libraries, I worked to keep academics up to date with the best mobile technologies, and won awards for innovation. Now I have my own business helping librarians stay current with new technologies.

      Like most librarians, I am passionate about access to information for all. Mobile apps with their touchscreens and speech interfaces are empowering for all ages and abilities — and librarians who take my courses are becoming technology experts for their communities.

      If you’re interested in learning more about mobile technologies for education, and how to keep up with emerging technologies,  take a look at this list of my other books and courses.

      Stay Current

      To stay current with the best technologies that help provide access to information for everyone, sign up for my email newsletter, Mobile Apps News. It’s an easy way to keep up with the best new educational apps and technologies.
