A5 Run it by the trusted editors in your #PLN What do they think? Who do they know that needs to hear it? #2pencilchat

MrRussoRH Jan 31 @ 7:38 PM EST

A5: advertise through PLNs, with peers in your school, with parents. Share your audience and ask for feedback. #2PencilChat

ChouinardJahant Jan 31 @ 7:38 PM EST

#2pencilchat I believe Ss need full control- record- choice of topic on relevance & interest- work alone or in groups & time to record

MagicPantsJones - Moderator Jan 31 @ 7:28 PM EST

Q4 wants students to have ownership of their podcast! #2PencilChat

MisterMarkTV Jan 31 @ 7:38 PM EST

A5 All you need is one or two students to post the link for the podcast on their social media and it takes care of itself #2PencilChat

MagicPantsJones - Moderator Jan 31 @ 7:39 PM EST

A5 Twitter, Facebook, and emailing parents. #2PencilChat

ChouinardJahant Jan 31 @ 7:40 PM EST

The more podcasts we listen too the more they get the hang of it. Humor is important. Also science related topics for us. #2PencilChat

MagicPantsJones - Moderator Jan 31 @ 7:40 PM EST

A5 We're soliciting stories for our next episode, that way, we get automatic extra listeners...any takers? #2PencilChat

BrookinsBits Jan 31 @ 7:40 PM EST

A1: ashamed to admit, haven't listened to any student created podcast #2pencilchat

A6-Writing/podcasting gives every child a voice-even the most introverted-Success in a project like this creates confidence #2pencilchat

MrRussoRH Jan 31 @ 7:49 PM EST

A6: many Ss verbalize their thinking better than they write it. Allows for them to have an = voice. Allows for all to engage. #2PencilChat

MagicPantsJones - Moderator Jan 31 @ 7:50 PM EST
