Introducing:
Teachers will walk away knowing how to integrate podcasts into their instruction and also utilize student created podcasts in their classroom to increase the level of engagement and offer alternative assessment options.
Hi, there!
I'm Trina Deboree, and I've been in education for over 20 years. In that time I've learned a lot about teaching and learning. In 2011, I received my Masters in Education Technology and Media Design from Full Sail University where I learned how to seamlessly integrate technology into my 2nd-grade classroom.
I know how difficult it can be to find technology that is simple to use and has an impact on your students' abilities and engagement levels. Most tech integration requires some annoying program that makes kids hate learning even more. Or teachers are expected to learn complicated programs that you just don't have time to figure out on your own.
Integrating podcasts into your standards-based curriculum can be the most straightforward application of technology you have tried yet. And podcasting with your students offers an alternative to paper and pencil assessment. Outside the box creatives will fall in love with learning. And the impact you have on your students' engagement levels will be mind-blowing!
Podcasting School for Teachers is the ONLY Virtual PD of its kind that…
1. Shows you how to integrate meaningful technology easily
2. Shares the how-to and what you need to start listening to or creating podcasts successfully
3. Provides access to all you need to start the very next day
4. Understands that teachers need technology to be both impactful and straightforward
5. Recognizes that students need alternative ways to show what they know
So if you’re ready to finally start integrating meaningful technology with podcasting while avoiding time suckers and overwhelm...
Here's how I'll help you get there:
Virtual PD
Podcasting School for Teachers
Teachers will come together to learn the power of podcasting in the classroom by answering the following questions:
What is a podcast?
Why should I be using podcasts in my classroom to share content?
How much time do people consume various types of content?
How can I use podcasting as an alternative assessment?
How can I use podcasting to cover ELA and content area standards?
What podcasts can I use in my classroom?
Why should I let my kids be the ones podcasting?
What are the ten steps to starting a classroom podcast?
What are some simple episode ideas my students could start tomorrow?
Learn At Least One Thing About Podcasting
If you don't learn at least one thing about podcasting during your virtual training, then I will personally refund your money.
I 100% believe that podcasting or using podcasts in the classroom can have a significant impact on the engagement levels of your students.
If you can honestly walk away from this training without having gained at least one nugget of information, then you can write me at tdeboree@trinadeboreeteachingandlearning.com within the first 48 hours after your purchase of this training.
Please include one paragraph telling me what you did not learn and why you feel entitled to a refund. I will then refund your money. That is how certain I am you will benefit from this virtual PD.
Frequently Asked Questions
What people are asking before signing up for Podcasting School for Teachers?
-
One of the best things about podcasting is you don't need fancy equipment. In Podcasting School for Teachers, I show you how to use any device in your classroom to record and host your show. You don't even need a fancy microphone. Apple, Android, and even a computer will work.
-
I'm so glad you asked this question. You do not need to be a one-to-one classroom to utilize podcasts in your learning space. You can use one device to both listen and record. It may take you longer to get episodes recorded with fewer devices but it is possible. Also, you really only need one device to listen to podcasts. Android or Apple! Anything goes.
-
I know time is a hot commodity in the classroom. Teachers don't have time to waste. I get that. Podcasts don't have to replace good instruction. They can be used to enhance good instruction. And I have taken a lot of the guesswork and time-consuming tasks out of it. You get multiple lists of great podcasts to play in your classroom the very next day. I will also give you a step-by-step guide to starting a podcast in your classroom. So all you need to do is get your kids ready to start the show!
-
I wish there were a way for me to offer you inservice credits. Currently, I don't have the means to do so. The training is about forty-five minutes. So hopefully, that timeframe feels comfortable, and the content feels worth the personal investment.
-
The bonuses are created to help support your integration of podcasts and podcasting in your classroom. Some of the components are a sample of a larger product that you can find on TpT. But each component can be used on its own. Other pdfs can only be found in this training, but you will walk away with the tools you need to get started the very next day.
-
Adding a podcast to your content delivery is as easy as searching for the podcast on your device and pressing play. So you can start the very next day. I will also give you some specific podcasts to make searching for the perfect show easier. You will also receive a sample podcast exit ticket to copy and use tomorrow. Getting your kids set up to start podcasting may take a few more days, but not long. You should be up and rolling within the week.
