NRK news video podcasts

In order to help students learn to understand Norwegian spoken at normal tempo, I have been assigning my fourth semester Norwegian class to watch a video podcast of the "Kveldsnytt" news podcast three days per week (Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday). So far, it is my sense that they think it is hard, but I'm curious to see if they improve over the course of an entire semester.


You can watch these newscasts live on NRK's website, but I prefer subscribing to the video podcast. To subscribe, open iTunes on your computer and click on "Advanced" in the menu at the top. Then click on "Subscribe to podcast" and type in this address:
