Description: Podcasts
High School Student #2
Project Proposal
Project Summary:
I’m going to make a series of podcasts, each an hour long, explaining different subjects. I will learn how to explain different subjects, I’ll have to learn the subject well enough to talk about it for an hour. I’ll prove what I learned by sharing my podcasts with teachers, they will be able to tell if I learned the subject well enough to make an educational podcast from the information I got.
I commit to keep a log.
Project Readiness:
I have a system of making quality audio. I have a sound conditioned area, a good microphone, and audio editing software. I have made podcasts before, I have studied subjects well enough to talk and debate them on a podcast.
I have passed all my state tests, exceeding on my Reading state test. In middle school I was put in the 12th grade reading level.
