<p>Harlan County High School students in Spanish II recently had the opportunity to collaborate with the Kentucky Valley Educational Cooperative and Epling Illustrations to learn how to create podcasts in Spanish. Christopher Epling and his colleagues have visited HCHS on multiple occasions to illustrate the essentials of blogging and podcasts. Real-world technology skills such as podcasting can be useful for students’ future careers and college projects. In Spanish II-B classes at Harlan County High School, students have been able to create various podcasts about their local areas that might appeal to visitors from other areas. Spanish II-A classes will be creating podcasts showing how to successfully contact a restaurant in a Spanish-speaking country. Both projects will be archived for students to review many years later after they have finished their Spanish and high school studies.</p>
