This week we worked with a program called Audacity to make a podcast. I talked for almost two minutes about why math is important. In this podcast I discussed how math is used thoughout life. I mentioned how simple math is used, such as addition and subtraction. During the podcast I did a reference more towards a timeline. I talked about when you are little you start to spend money, and as you get older you eventually get marriend to have children and many bills. One strategy is to get children motivated at a younger age by playing games or hands on activities. This assignment was fun because we were also able to add background music, and adjust the volume for it to play while we spoke. To go along with the assignment we found several links referring to our content area. These links are podcasts done over math about different topics.
For future use this would be benefical if you as a teacher had a child with a disability for the student to hear your lesson recorded on Audacity. The teacher can also place the link on a website created on Google over the lesson for students to reference back to.
The ISTE standards met are:
Digital age learning experience and assessments: We used a new program to create a podcast. As students we learned how to use another technology based program.
Digital age work and learning: We worked with this new program to express how we felt about a certain topic. Creating this podcast allowed us to download music to attach as well.
