Evalutaion: my podcast

The unit of “Podcasts to examine adolescence” has come to an end. I think I have learnt a lot on podcasts and adolescence. I learnt more about me by thinking about me and my friends. I realized that all friends aren’t that good friends but still you need them.

For my podcast, I think it was audible and clear. I published it on podomatic.com. In the beginning I though I was going to use podcastalley.com but it was too complicated due to the fact that I am bad at technology, not the school subject technology but technology.

My podcast was about a teenager. Me. And the last maybe I should have talked more about friends because that would have made it better.

At the beginning, we did many things for investigate and that was the most fun part. I like interviewing my friends and my dad. It felt like I was an interviewer. When me and Binderya made a test practice podcast, it was fun too because I went to her house. When I had to do the podcast, it was kind of boring for me, to tell the truth. I might have picked the wrong topic, but it was just not that exciting for me, so design was a little tricky for me, but after I had picked my topic, it was easy making the outline about what I was going to talk about. I think the making the plan was short and easy. For the create part, I just had to change the script around a bit and record it. Publishing it on a site was the hard part.

According to my design specifications, most of them were achieved: it was loud and clear, I think what I talked about made sense and it does show emotion. But the things that were not achieved were the music in the background and 10-15 minutes long. It was totally not 10 minutes long, it was 3 minutes.

My test as I said in the beginning of the unit, is to make at least 2 people read it and answer questions I wrote. The questions were:
• Do you think this podcast was true and it relates to my life from what you know about me?
• Was it over exaggerated?
• Does this relate to your life in any way? And how?
• Would you recommend this to other people? Who?
My two classmates answered very positively so I think it makes my podcast reasonable and it relates close to them. They said it does relate closely to me as well as to them. They both said it was not over exaggerated. And one of them said they would recommend it to a person looking for a close friend.

This is the end of the unit called “Podcasts to examine adolescence.” I think it was a great way to learn about all the podcast in the world that it is out there, and also about my adolescence life as well as others.
