Request a Podcast Studio Introduction
Podcasting can be an effective tool for instruction. At its core, podcasting is making an audio file available for online streaming or download. It can be set up as a conversation between hosts, interviews in the field, or a combination of the two through storytelling. Podcasts can be used to inform, persuade, and entertain audiences.
Podcasting encourages students to engage with a topic through writing, speaking and discussing. Furthermore, it prompts students to practice different types of writing for a wider audience than traditional academic writing. Podcasting can motivate students to use their creative energy to merge project-based learning with digital media analysis and production skills. When paired with rubrics, podcast assignments can be a tool for mastering skills while engaging and informing.
To support faculty and instructors in their teaching mission, Academic Technology Solutions has built a simple and easy-to-use podcasting studio. The ATS podcast studio allows users to create high-quality audio recordings, with no preparation needed beyond a 30-minute tutorial. All of the work of setting up a microphone, amplifiers and sound mixers is already done and pre-configured, leaving the user with only the task of recording their material.
