Project 3: Audio (Podcast - Booktalk)

Amber Brown is Not a Crayon - A Book Talk with Sound Clips


Purpose: I would like to start a library of student and teacher-created book talks in my elementary school. The purpose of this podcast is to serve as an example to students of my expectations for an audio book talk.

Audience: The primary audience for this podcast is 3rd-5th graders. Teachers who are also requiring audio book talks may use it in their classrooms as well.

Tools: I used Audacity to record the podcast along with Logitech headphones with a built-in microphone. I found that starting consonants were cut off when I tried using my laptop's built-in microphone. In addition, I used sound files from 3 different sites. I used VLC to convert the *.wav file created by Audacity to an mp3 file. I then used archive.org to upload my *.mp3 file which created an embeddable weblink for the file. Finally, I have published the product and information here on multimedialsd.blogspot.com.

Reflection: This was a fun project, one that I believe students would also enjoy. However, finding sound files that don’t require attribution was a struggle. Adding metadata information to the audacity file would be beyond my expectations for young children. I will encourage students to create their own sound files to avoid this problem. Since we are posting this to a website, adding credits is not a problem. However, if the files are just being uploaded to a repository by students, then the attribution issue gets a little more complicated.
