<p>I had an idea of creating a lesson that incorporates the core skills of the English curriculum: have students research a topic, then write a transcript for a podcast and produce a podcast. It doesn't have to be uploaded to any public sites but could be just an audio recording submitted for assessment. This takes the pressure off of kids to present speeches every time they are assessed on verbal skills. This also builds technological skills that students can really use. Students should know how to create audio files in the 21st century and we could be sparking a potential podcast star among our students!</p>
