Podcasting

GoSynth is a crazy simple tool you can use to support podcasting in your classroom. This tool limits podcasters to 256 second podcast "bytes," but these can be strung together as podcast episodes. You might want to check out NPR's, Teaching Podcasting: A Curriculum Guide for Educators to help you integrate podcasting into your instruction.

Tools Needed:

• Chromebook
• Headphones with built-in microphone (optional but recommended)
• The Podcast Organizer (if you want students to plan out their podcast which is HIGHLY recommended)

BEFORE RECORDING:

• Plan out the script of the podcast using the Podcast Organizer (linked above).
• Pre-select/record any music or sound effects and have them ready to upload. You can use royalty free music from Bensound. There are a limited variety of free audio tracks available through GoSynth.
