This week on his blog, Richard posted "10 Ideas for Classroom Podcasts" and he has shared some great information! To go along with these awesome ideas, he also posted a video on how to create a podcast and it seems very easy to do and is definitely something I am interested in and plan to share with other members of my school. Below I have summarized some of his ideas and have explained how my school could incorporate them into our daily procedures.
1. Getting to know people within the school
Not every student is going to have the opportunity to get to know every staff member. My school consists of about 100 staff members and I think it would be a great idea to showcase these members on the morning news. All of these individuals care about our students and have interesting facts that they could share if given the opportunity. I imagine this could be a great opportunity for incoming 7th and 8th graders to learn more about 7th and 8th grade teachers, administrators, and counselors.
2. School news
Our yearbook staff or journalism club could post a weekly podcast about school news. I envision this as our very own version of Channel One News, where students would focus on current school events- sport events, music concerts, school projects, etc.
3. Book reviews
Students could record their thoughts about their favorite book they're currently reading or have read in the past. This would also make for a great conversations before spring and summer break!
4. Sports statistics debates
March Madness will be the perfect time for students to talk about some statistics and have some friendly competition between students and staff
