A podcast is an
essential teaching tool because both teachers and students can contribute ideas
to different subject areas or matters of interest to a larger conversation or
audience. This is done via an amateur
radio that is downloaded from the web and the information recorded and then exported
as an mp3 file to be listened to. This also encourages shy students to become
apart of and feel involved in the lesson by using this piece of technology.
The podcasts recording
produced by the group is on the subject of Physical Education; what it is, its
importance, objectives of learning it and possible challenges faced by teachers
in teaching the subject. The podcast can
be used for classroom instruction where it can be used as a listening device
for information sharing and ideas can be shared openly and recorded to share
with the wider audience.
REFLECTION
The piece that is produced is an amateur radio
called a podcast, where a recording was done on the Physical Education topic
area. This piece can be used to sensitize the wider public on the basis of P.E.
in schools. The major challenge faced in
completing this exercise is exporting the information to a mp3 file after
recording, bearing the timing needed in mind which grew to become very diffcult to manipulate.
Suggestively the piece can be improved with the music and tone of the
voices for a much clearer projection of the information produced. In all, the
piece is well done due o the effort of both group members involved.
