These headphones will replace older headphones that have gone out on our radio station soundboard. The students will use them during their live productions. It will cancel out other projects and students in the classroom. The headphones will give the DJs great sound as they develop their 20 minute radio shows. Each week the students develop radio shows out of a database of songs, student made commercials and student made interviews. All the content on the radio except for the songs are developed by the students. The students record their voice into digital recorders or devices and upload the files to their Google Drives. Inside a software called Soundtrap.com students develop quick PSAs, commercials, and even station taglines. From second grade to sixth grade, student utilize digital tools in my classroom to develop content for the radio station and television station. Fifth graders have been busy this month learning how to create radio commercials. They have learned how to mix sound effects, background music, and narration to create commercials for their favorite product. The ultimate goal for these projects is to get the students to learn how to use the digital tools and reach some of the state computer standards that will help them in the future. These headphones will be a great addition to the station sound board in our radio studio. Tune in on a Friday and you will be sure to hear real vinyl being played by elementary age students. Tune in 24 hours a day to hear student created audio projects. From second grade to sixth grade, the student at our school utilize Sony digital recorders and sound mixing software to create some of the coolest commercials and taglines for our school radio station, Bobcat Radio.
