My Project

This semester, my students decided to take their love of discussions and podcasting and create their own podcast club. The Gen-Z Knows Podcast Club is an awesome group of students who are super committed and full of creative ideas! Each week, they get together to dive into interesting topics, have great conversations, and share their thoughts through their own podcasts.

But here’s the thing: the space our new podcast club is currently using for recording isn’t as calming and cool as it could be.

The goal is to turn their recording area (the back of the classroom) into a Zen and inviting mock studio where they can really shine.

We need the right materials, including a comfy couch for them to gather together, a neon sign with their podcast name, and soft LED video lights to create a more personal and welcoming vibe so they feel like they have their own dedicated space. This will create a relaxed ambiance that encourages open dialogue and creativity. By giving them a calm space to work in, we can help our students create amazing podcasts while also supporting their creativity and well-being. Your support would mean a lot to us and could really help the Gen-Z Knows Podcast Club take off!
