Combining ICTs with other subjects has become way easier than never. In today's post I will show you how to teach Spanish painters through the creation of a podcast with the students.
The introductory podcast was created using Session Town and Audacity to join the two music files and my voice. Then, it was uploaded to Soundcloud. You can find the introduction and the playlist where all the podcasts will be stored once recorded and uploaded below.
Once the files are uploaded, you can create a playlist and add them there. I tried to create the playlist beforehand but I couldn't, so keep that in mind.
I also had some trouble recording the initial music, having to screen capture my music and then uploading the video to a mp3 converter. However, Audacity was easy to use as I learned how to use it during the degree.
Discoveries
Soundcloud was a discovery for me, as it sounded familiar but I had never used it before. Moreover, the webpage I used to create the music, Session Town, was completely new for me as well, it is a great resource for music teachers!
Uses or connections
Soundcloud provides an opportunity to teach students through a different method. The first thing that came to my mind is creating podcasts that students could listen to while studying for an exam. It has a lot of potential to be used for flipped classrooms, or in regular ones like the example I provided.
