You’re not uploading anything to Podbean today. You are just

STEP TWO
Before doing the following, refer to p. 14 in your
casebook. You should recognize p. 14.
1. Using your own podcast script, record a practice podcast. YOU ARE
NOT RECORDING YOUR 200 WORD BACKGROUND/INTRODUCTION.
2. Record and listen to what you record. Record until you are happy
with what you’ve done.
3. Export your practice podcast as an .mp3 INTO YOUR FLASH DRIVE, ON
YOUR 105EXTRAS FOLDER.
4. Listen to BOTH your group members' podcasts and to your own
podcast.
YOU ARE POSTING ALL OF THE FOLLOWING INTO THE GROUP.
5. What did you think of your voice? Your group members' voices? Be
descriptive.
6. Have you heard yourself speak before? If so, where, if not, why
not?
7. Is there anything about your voice you don't like? You do like?
What about your partner's voice?
Everyone's podcasts should sound natural, as if s/he were having a
conversation with someone. The podcasts should NOT sound like the
material is being read directly from a script, nor should the
material
be speed delivered, nor should there be an overwhelming amount of
stumbling, stuttering, or tripping over words.
8. How important is voice delivery for a podcast?
9. How can your own apprehensions about your voice affect your
podcast?
10. What aspects of your voice will serve you well when you record
your
podcast? What about your group members' voices?
11. Those who are delivering a spoken message sometimes speed read
from their scripts, sound like they're reading directly from their
script, or stutter, stumble, and trip over their words. What is the
ONE thing that everyone can do that will prevent all of this from
happening?
MOST IMPORTANTLY:
1. Is your partner's podcast component AT LEAST three minutes and NO
MORE than four???? Specify the length.
