Assignment 5 Key Points Work individually or in groups of 2-3 (if you are an online student and have immediate access to each other, you can work as a group, but everyone should have a voice on the podcast. This can be completed through le sharing. Please let me know right away if you are working in a team). I use Audacity as my podcaster. However, you can use soundcloud, Garage Band, or any other voice ediKng program you have used and know. To download Audacity, Visit 1). hNp://www.how- to-podcast-tutorial.com/15-audacity-download.htm To use Audacity, Visit 2). hNp://www.how-to-podcast-tutorial.com/17-audacity-tutorial.htm For student examples from previous classes, please visit my Web site at these links: hNp:// www.quickbloom.com/examples-of-student-work.html and hNp://www.quickbloom.com/ services/a-podcast-by-kevin-wolford.html Download Audacity on your computer hNp://audacity.sourceforge.net or you can use the podcaster on Blackboard (however, it might not let you edit as well). Script out a topic to talk about (for example an adverKsement for a make-believe product, an interview with a business leader or employee about a business topic, a mock radio show about a business topic, a newsleNer for a community event or organizaKon where you volunteer etc.). Allow for some o the cu moments and incorporate a second track with music. Have fun with this project. Learning the soZware is easier than you probably think, but like learning any new technology dont wait unKl the last minute. Individual podcast 5-8 minutes; group project 10-13 minutes (depending on group size).
Grading
Criteria
Note
for
those
in
a
group:
each
group
receives
the
same
grade.
A
person
will
receive
a
grade
of
0
points
if
he
or
she
doesnt
show
or
do
the
group
work
assigned
because
technically
that
person
was
never
a
part
of
the
group.
All
members
in
a
group
must
divide
the
podcast
presenta@on
evenly
(actually
talking
into
the
recorder).
However,
this
can
make
for
a
dynamic
conversa@on
that
can
mimic
a
radio
show. Podcast
