Podcast Example

Podcasts represent a great opportunity to use audio to create an educational experience with students. In this example, created as part of an assignment for my EDIT 740 Product Design and Development Course, I show how a short podcast can be used to send important course reminders to students. This is an actual podcast that I shared with my high school band students to remind them of band camp report dates for the 2017 marching band season. This is important as students, no matter how often I have reminded them of the band camp dates for the upcoming season or provided handouts with this information, always seem to forget when they are supposed to show up! Using a podcast to remind them of this important information will (hopefully) make an impact on their memory and help everybody know when they are supposed to report. I have emailed this to all of my students, and also texted this podcast to them via the Remind app that I use to communicate with students and their families. It will also be posted on our band website.
