I have my students podcasting for our Speech & Debate elective course in Korea International School. The students' goal was to develop their own unique show for a specific audience. The first episodes are linked off of my blog at this site: http://tsbray.posterous.com/pod-casting-project-the-students-talking
Please feel free to share with students!

I teach 5th grade in the San Jose, CA area. I'm new to this site and think I sent my first message to wrong place! I have been podcasting for several years now, and we have our classroom radio station, JMKATZ Radio in San Jose. Right now, only my students and their parents are listening! I would love to hear from other elementary teachers who are interested in doing something on a Global scale. I am very excited about all of our possibilities!

My name is Larry Langley. I teach high school students (ages 13-18) in the following subjects: journalism, English language arts, theater arts, reading (7th grade) and yearbook. The name of our school is Rocksprings High School located in Rocksprings, TX 78880, population 1285. We have 293 students enrolled at present. The majority of my students are Hispanic.
I want to involve my students in a cross-cultural experience this year using many kinds of technology (building a web site, podcasting, videocasting, digital photography and so on).

We made podcasts in 6th grade on a science topic-bacteria and viruses-and we will post them to our wiki. Can a podcast be posted to a Ning?

Thought for Megan:

I think your situation is something we need to be hearing more about!! Often even in homes where there are no computers the kids still have MP3 players. It is not hard to get your podcast onto iTunes where the kids could download it and listen to it. Could you connect with a local radio station that would play your shows if you create them??? Just some thoughts...

This morning there was a comment on the list from someone who is doing a podcast and a lightbulb went off! What if we Skyped with kids from different countries and used that as our part of our podcast.

I also just reread what I was doing last year (I was actually surprised when I saw that I had started the group!!) and thought I would update. Last year I only had lunch time with kids and tried to get them more involved, but it was difficult. Every week was a challenge.

This year I am trying something different. This year I am getting classroom teachers more involved and doing the recording in and with their classes. We have 9 Sony digital recorders and so I go in early in the week and give the kids some instructions on how to record and the teacher comes up with a topic and a plan and then they do the recording. What we have done has varied a lot depending on which class and grade I go to. In one Kindergarten class the teacher asked what their favorite season was and we passed one recorder around the circle and each child responded. In a Second Grade class the kids each read a sentence from a poem. In 4th grade they planned on their own and came to the lab to record in small groups whenever they were done. And so on...

This year I finally have some real student initiated interest. There is a small group that is planning their own podcast and have recorded two shows so far!

Please do remember to put your podcast link in the discussion so that we can listen to each other. Ours is Bluejay Authors'Collection on iTunes and also it is at http://bce2.eanesisd.net.

Yes, I would like to do this with my 4th & 5th grade O Ambassador students.

Grade 5 & 6 students in our school have a weekly live radio show on a community radio station. The show is a mix of students telling about their interests, stories, quizzes, interviews with visitors to the school and Skype interviews with students and teachers from international schools. Extracts from the show are then podcast to our blog and ITunes.
I have been looking for other examples of elementary student podcasts, to share with the students, so this Ning is great to link fellow podcasters.
You can find links to our podcasts on http://berwicklodgeps.globalteacher.org.au

Hi,

I am a campus technology coordinator (the job is supposed to be more curriculum oriented than tech oriented) at an elementary school. A year ago with encouragement from people from Seedlings I created a podcast for our school called The Bluejay Authors' Collection (http://bce2.eanesisd.net). I felt that I needed to be able to do this if I was going to encourage teachers to do them with their kids and I had never tried anything with audio.

The first year it was pretty teacher directed. I came up with the topics and plans and assisted kids as they made the podcast. This year it is more student directed, but not as much as I would like it to be, but I am not sure how to change it. This year each week I choose about 4 volunteers from 4th or 5th grade. I try to rotate between the two. On Monday they come at lunch and we write a script, then on Tuesday and Wednesday during lunch they record all of the pieces and then on Thursday we put it together and post it. So that the whole school is involved we rotate between K-3rd grades and I ask those teachers to come up with something that they want their kids to share. It can be reading something they have written recently or being interviewed about something that is happening. Each week is different. Last week two fourth grade girls interviewed some kindergarten students about planting a tree for EarthDay. Two weeks ago four very creative girls came up with a detective show about a Second Grade economics unit. So far I only have lunch to work with the kids and so that limits things. I hope you will listen and comment!

Janice
