Art of the Podcast
For storytellers and aspiring journalists
Course Description
This new media storytelling lab will prepare students to create their own podcasts! Over the 12 sessions, they will create end-to-end projects, including project planning and research, conducting ethical interviews, and editing with industry-standard audio-video software to culminate in a final presentation highlighting their unique podcasts!
Our instructional team, guest speakers, and media experts will guide students as we explore the new media storytelling art of podcasting, as well as help students build college and career readiness, social emotional learning, and project-based learning skills. Design-thinking and collaboration with peers will be essential to mastering the process of crafting, recording, and editing final portfolio projects. This course uses the free and widely available platform WeVideo to create podcasts. Schools will need to register for a WeVideo school license to use this course.
