Hi, Mark ...
I'm sure that the Open University in the UK uses radio broadcasts to support
some courses - I wonder if anyone reading this discussion has more
information on when, & why?
Bringing the discussion down towards first principles, I'd be interested to
know whether you have the same reservations about the usefulness of
TV broadcasts
Audiocassettes
Videocassettes
MP3 files
Streaming audio / video
as learning resources that you express for radio broadcast?
===================clip===================
Mary's contribution made me think of a resource offered by BBc radio e.g.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/today/listenagain/
It seems that the BBC are building a digital radio archive that is currently
made available on the web (and searchable). I think that this must provide
a valuable additional resource, that can be used quite differently from
specific broadcast educational programmes - pull rather than push.
Currently it is free too!
