Reflection

Making a podcast was a little nerve-racking for me. I really don't like recording myself and I feel like I am going to say something wrong and have to start all over. To overcome that, I wrote a script for each podcast and read it aloud. This worked well for the most part, except when I would stutter on a word I would get self-conscious. I think that these turned out well despite that. In a classroom setting, I would use a podcast as a way for students to have access to study materials that they can access when at home. I know that many students dread reading and having a podcast they could listen to instead might be a way of getting them to study without so much dread.
