LITTLE FRANKY´S BLOG: Little storytellers!!

Hello friends, I'm already here again!

During this new post we will work with a very useful resource such as the use of podcasts in the classroom.

The use of podcasts in language teaching can be very useful as it is an opportunity to significantly increase the amount of real oral input the student receives.

In the case of the English language in particular, with such a chaotic pronunciation system, the possibility of listening and reading the transcription at the same time produces an obvious improvement in the oral productions of the students.

For this reason we will develop a project to take it to the classroom using the podcast, then I will explain the development of this:
Next I leave the welcome audio for my students and as an example a playlist to encourage and motivate them.

--> In the first place, we must have an organization and a structure of the project that we are going to carry out. For that we can use the google drive application that allows us to create documents in the cloud and share them with our students. In this google doc. We will find a planing in which the organization of our project is visulized, so that our students will know the work script.

--> Once we have our planning, we have organized our students in groups, we have chosen the readings and everything is well prepared, we started with the podcast recordings. For this we will use several tools or applications that will allow us to record and edit our audios.
These are some applications (audacity, soundcloud, hokusai), although there are many more. And we can even use the recorders of our mobile devices and then upload them to the network.

-->After this, it is time to upload our audios to the network. For this we have used sound cloud since it is a platform that allows us to make recordings in the cloud, upload audios, promote them and share them. The audio tracks that we record or upload can be labeled, categorized, shared on social networks and organized into playlists.

For this reason we have used this platform which will be our audiolibrary and we will upload all the podcasts of our students. So they will be shared in a public playlist, so that all the students of our school can listen to them.
