Podcasting is a new method of communication allowing anyone to create audio files and post them to the Internet for others to download and listen to at any time. These audio files can be downloaded to a personal computer or handheld device such as an iPod.
Podcasting has rapidly become a new medium for both commercial and home-grown talk shows on multiple subjects. The relative ease of production and low costs associated with the making of a Podcast has opened this new medium to the masses.
I think this gives teachers an overview on starting a student-produced Podcast at their school and in the classroom. The Podcast can take on multiple themes. Some teachers are using Podcasting as an alternative to student produced newspapers and television shows. Others are using the medium to reproduce lessons for absent students or for students to present oral presentations of reports and assignments. There are multiple possibilities for using the Podcasting medium. This lesson focuses on producing a student-created Podcast as medium for student expression, news, interviews, and related themes specific to the student's own school.
Students learn the technical skills needed to record a high-quality podcast. Students brainstorm, and design the themes and content of their Podcast with teacher guidance. Students complete pre-production, production, and post-production of their Podcast. Students ultimately learn project management skills, Podcasting technical skills, and actively use the Podcast as a medium for positive student expression. I think that teachers9like myself) will need to posses intermediate computer skills and should familiarize ourselves with the technical aspects of the production process.
