AUDIO PROJECT: THE RADIO

Hi everybody,

Here I am again! Today I am going to show you a creative project that I have created. I would like to start by explaining what a podcast is and how you can use in your classroom.
A podcast is an audio file that you can use to improve the level of english of your students. Also will improve self-confidence with the language grammar. It is useful in all subjects but specially in those related with language.
Fist of all I will explain you how to create a podcast. There are several tools and apps where you can create an online podcasting. The one that I used is SoundCloud. There you can make your own playlist. It is very useful and easy. To get started you have to register with your google account, Facebook or email, then you will have your profile where you can organize and personalize. The audio tracks that you record can be share, tagged and categorized as you like it.
Where can I record my audio tracks? It is so easy. I have used Audacity. You must download it. After that you can start recording and editing your audio tracks.
Once the account in SoundCloud has been created and you downloaded Audacity you can start making interesting and creative activities.
How have I created my Project?
I would like to say that I have really enjoyed creating this project because I consider that is a good activity to develop the creativity of our students and also amuse them.
I have followed the steps that I have described above, after that I created a lesson plan. I created the lesson plan in Google drive where you can créate documents. In my project I pretend to develop the communicative skills and improve the level of english of my students.

Here you have my project in more details: GOOGLE DOC






Here you have my Welcome Audio
Here you have my Playlist


Here you have my Channel


I have really enjoyed with this project because I think that is so funny. Audio projects take time but is easy to use. I am sure that in the future I will use with my children because they are going to enjoy. They can be engage on creating new records and upload they feel like they are taking part on their own learning. I realize that I can use audio projects for a lot of things and also all subjects.

I hope you like the post.
