Benefits of Teaching with Free Range
Podcasts make for unique learning experiences, and Free Range is no exception. Students can stream from their choice of five different platforms, wherever, whenever. They can take a break from reading but stay engaged learners while listening to the variety of topics included in the Free Range conversation. Additionally, Free Range can always be streamed for free, making it accessible to any student. The conversational nature of podcasts like ours can allow for difficult topics to be understood more easily and gives students that struggle with learning from a book an opportunity for a change of pace. Pause, rewind, and replay any of our episodes as many times as needed for maximum learning, and relistening is always an option for review.
