“Podcasting allows students to get personal in a way that’s sometimes harder in written form, especially for students for whom English is a second (or third) language and when certain words or expressions come more easily in their native tongues. It’s no surprise that a common theme in these stories is students’ admiration of people in their lives who have survived significant struggle, and a sense of optimism about their futures in a new country.”
Thanks so much to Slack’s Editorial Team for tutoring in one of our podcasting field trips and sharing their experience. You can read about their experience and the student podcasts they helped bring to life on their blog.
