My Project

My students are engineers, makers and gamers who love to communicate, collaborate and create new things. This podcasting equipment will help us bring a new element to our class where we are able to create our own shows. Students can play games and then create a podcast to describe their strategy. Cultivating my students genius is always a goal of my class and if my students want to express their learning through creating a podcast then I want to make sure we have the equipment to be able to do it!
