Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Thing 18- Podcasting

I can honestly tell you that I am not a huge fan of podcasts mainly because I am not that good of a listener. I am the kind of person that really needs to focus on what someone is saying in order to remember it. So a podcast for me is not the greats of tools for my own education. That being said, I think there are tremendous resources out there for students to take a look at and use to help them better understand certain topics. Since I mainly teach US History and Psychology there isn't a ton out there on US history since lets be honest not a lot is happening on a regular basis to host a podcast for. So I spent my time looking up recurring and past podcasts that could help my students get a better understanding of some of the topics that we cover is psychology. I think these might be something nice to add to my courses wiki as additional study help.
