As an end-of-the-year project
7th grade students were asked to choose a "How Things Work" or "Famous Scientist" topic,
research it in the Media Center and on the Internet, and then create a podcast explaining
to listeners what they had learned.
|
After taking notes on
their topic, students created a storyboard and a podcast "script" which they submitted for review.
Once their storyboard and script had passed the review process, they could then record their
"podcast" on iRiver mp3 player/recorders, transfer the
file to a PC, and then begin editing the sound file.

| This project required the use of several different
pieces of computer software including: 1) Audio editing software; 2)
multi-track sound editing software; and 3) for the titles ... digital picture editing software (Photoshop). |
