Podcast Episodes
Students choosing the Podcast Episode format for their research projects will write, record, and edit a 15-minute discussion of their selected dystopian media. Students should consider this a formal presentation — it must be well-planned and organized — although the actual style may sound more casual.
Expectations
For the podcast episodes, you should be able to upload the MP4 file to a cloud storage service. You will not be able to submit the actual audio file through Brightspace; instead, you will need to provide the public sharing link for the audio file so I can download it.
Submitted podcast episodes must meet all of the following in order to be considered complete:
- Be completed on time.
- Demonstrate significant research into the topic dystopia.
- Demonstrate insightful analysis.
- Include at least 10 minutes of you presenting information to the audience.
- Be clearly written, well-organized, and clearly presented.
- Include a Show Notes document listing any attributions for Creative Commons media and ALL source material referenced in the episode in APA format.
