Hi, here's a list of links to podcasts I've produced over the last year. I've categorised the topics according to subject areas. So, for instance, yesterday's podcast included vocab and a multichoice exercise based on an interview with a health researcher - so it can be found under 'health'. Some podcasts have been put into more than one category - for example, the one on Pacific Globalisation appears in International Business as well as in NZ culture. Each podcast also contains various other sections, including vocabulary and questions about New Zealand society. If you'd like to embed the podcast player into your own webpage or facebook page etc, I've included at the end the code you need to paste in. Enjoy - and feel free to give your feedback.
