Engage Students AND Meet Standards with Student Podcasting!<\/h1>\n

Getting Started<\/h2>\n

A unique aspect of Jen\u2019s school is its elective program for seventh and eighth-graders. Once a week students choose their elective class based on an area of interest. These classes are taught by teachers, parents, grandparents, and community members as organized by the principal. Jen took this program a step further by offering students an opportunity to podcast about their interests that they are learning about throughout this time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Jen began by letting students explore the content available in podcasts. Next, students started recording their own content using Google Slides<\/a>. Jen took their podcasting to the next level when she was awarded $10,000 of grant money. They were able to purchase recording equipment, as well as, professional development for helping all teachers to utilize podcasting in their classrooms.\u00a0<\/span>
