Use in Education• Limited only by your imagination
How many ways can I use
Educational Podcasts?
![Page 23: PODCASTING put your ear to the world and reach out to your digitally enhanced students Carolyn McCarthy, SRESD with thanks to Anne Meadows and West Virginia](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070412/56649f055503460f94c19974/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
How are podcasts used in education?
• Introducing new content• Review• Self-directed study• Foreign language practice• Band concerts• Field trip guides• Digital storytelling• Project-based learning• Parent communiqués• News/announcements
The podcast of a boring and
unengaging lecture will be just as
boring and unengaging as the original lecture and,
once the initial novelty of the
delivery method wears off, it will be no more effective.

Podcasting Pointers• Design with the audience in mind
A podcast for parents or members of the board of education should sound completely different that one created for middle school students
• Plan from “Hello” to “Goodbye”What is the purpose of the podcast? How long will it be? Will you record voice only, or will music and sound effects be added? How frequently will episodes be published?
• Practice Makes…Well, Fewer MistakesAfter you get over the initial shock of hearing your own voice in a recording, you’ll be amazed at how many “umm”s you say. A script is essential.
![Page 38: PODCASTING put your ear to the world and reach out to your digitally enhanced students Carolyn McCarthy, SRESD with thanks to Anne Meadows and West Virginia](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070412/56649f055503460f94c19974/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Apple’s recipe• Intro music jingle (30 sec)• Freeplaymusic.com $25 per year TV themes• Topic 1: 5 minutes• Topic 2: 5 minutes• Interlude music 30 sec.• Topic 3: 5 minutes• Topic 4: 5 minutes• Closing remarks – hype next show 2 min• Closing music jingle: 2 minutes
![Page 39: PODCASTING put your ear to the world and reach out to your digitally enhanced students Carolyn McCarthy, SRESD with thanks to Anne Meadows and West Virginia](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070412/56649f055503460f94c19974/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Tips from the pros• PLAN – Script it out as needed• Figure out –Why am I doing this?• What topics can I talk authoritatively about?• Pick something you are passionate about• Is this something others will want to listen to?• Narrow down your scope• Select a very specific topic• How often will you produce your show?• Be consistent!!!
![Page 40: PODCASTING put your ear to the world and reach out to your digitally enhanced students Carolyn McCarthy, SRESD with thanks to Anne Meadows and West Virginia](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070412/56649f055503460f94c19974/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
More tips – the show
• All podcasts are linear with a beginning, middle and end.
• Start strong• End strong• Do a script so you stay on task• Have a welcome and ending• Use music that builds and closes• Watch copyright!!! Not even 10 secs. of a
commercial song without permission

A few more tips
![Page 44: PODCASTING put your ear to the world and reach out to your digitally enhanced students Carolyn McCarthy, SRESD with thanks to Anne Meadows and West Virginia](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070412/56649f055503460f94c19974/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Microphones
• Buy one specifically for podcasting if you can• It is the MOST important piece of equipment• Don’t use built in or webcam mics• USB headset from plantronics under $100 has
noise cancellation • Dynamic mics (vs. condenser) – more durable
and rugged• Condenser mics are best for office or home –
great range and more responsive
