Directions+for+Podcasts+in+Mr.+Kelly's+Class

Podcast segments for Mr. Kelly's History Radio follow a certain formula to provide safety but also allow you to receive credit for the work you put into your broadcast.
 * Step 1**: Write out your script. Podcasts should never be done without proper preparation. As Mr. Knoedler says, "If you fail to plan, you plan to fail. Besides, computer time in class is too valuable to work on your script "live."
 * Podcast Script Guidelines**
 * Step 2:** Revise, revise, revise your script. No one gets in right the first time. Work for a perfect product.
 * Step 3**: Gather materials you need for your Podcast. Sound effects may play a key part in your part of the show. Be creative. Think to yourself, "How can I make that sound?" When you get stuck, ask for advice.
 * Step 4**: Rehearse, rehearse, rehearse. You need to know how to pronounce your words before the microphone is on. Practice your timing. Sometimes you only get one chance to do it live.
 * Step 5:** Rehearse. (Many people seem to skip step # 4.)
 * Step 6:** Record your show.
 * Step 7:** Edit your show. As time permits, you can fine tune the performance.
 * Step 8:** Save your show. Use the title of your script, your initials, and your period number. (For example, if I were to create a podcast called Immigrants at Ellis Island and I was in first period, I would save it as **Iimmigrants at Ellis Island MK 1**)
