🤔 What is podcasting? How can it support what we are learning?
Writing these podcasts encouraged students who sometimes struggle with asserting their unique voice to take ownership of the writing process and express themselves.
~Danah Hashem, author of NCTE post "Why Try Podcasting in the Classroom?"
🧐 Let's see podcasting in action and get some ideas!
Possible Levels of SAMR with a Podcast:
Possible Levels of SAMR with a Podcast:
Substitution: Students read aloud a story and record the audio. The student and/or the teacher listens to the audio recorded.
Augmentation: Students write and record a podcast each week in order to share the major things they learned from each subject area they studied during the week.
Modification: Students are studying famous battles of the Civil War. They record podcast a summarizing what they've learned about a specific battle. Peers are able to access the recorded episodes to learn more about different battles.
Redefinition: Students write interview questions for a "guest" on a topic of interest (at older grades, perhaps a controversial topic). Student interview their guest in an audio podcast. Responding and further discussing points along the way. Student shares their audio recording with an audience via a Google Slide. Listeners comment on the podcast adding further to the discussion.
🤓 Let's Give it a Try!
Now it's your turn to create. Choose 1 of the tools below and learn how to use it. Create your own artifact with this tool. It should be something you would use with students or with coworkers. You'll add either your completed artifact or a link to this artifact to the Google Classroom Assignment below.

Listen to lots of podcasts first.
Begin with a podcast where students read their favorite book aloud and tell what they liked about it.
Provide prompt card or guided script during the podcast recording.
Emphasize that podcasts can have mistakes.
Have students listen to their own audio recordings. This can be very challenging, but is perhaps one of the best ways for them to really hear what they did well and where they still need to continue working on.
Constantly praise and celebrate their creations.
Record a class discussion. Listen to the class discussion. Talk about what might or might not make this a podcast.
