Topic2 - Podcast Assignment

Mrs Rutland’s History Corral Podcasts
http://web.hcpss.org/~MARCELLA_RULAND/FOV1-0007A953/

The podcasts (four in total) located in Mrs Rutland’s history class website are basic guidelines for individual assignments. The four podcasts seem to be supplemental to the class website which contains information pertaining to class assignments, class notes and other class reference material.

The podcasts were of good quality and discussed each assignment/test in length. However, I think I was hoping for podcasts more on class materials instead of tests. I did find another podcast from Mr. Kelly’s 7th Grade Social Studies class. This podcast covered information on an upcoming test as well as a review of the material being tested. However, Mr. Kelly’s site was not as robust as Mrs Rutland’s.

Listening to each of the podcasts, I realized how much work must go into developing a podcast that conveys the intended information and also sounds professionally produced.
