Vocabucasting
Description Students created a podcast that highlights the assigned words they are utilizing in core curricular areas. They found the definition, created a sentence using the words, and researched an image that best demonstrated the meaning of the words. Students then recorded their voices reading the sentences and pronouncing the words. The final product (words, sentences, images, and audio recordings) was then uploaded to a web page and made available on the Internet. This project can be used at all grade levels. Student Learning Outcomes The goals of the Vocabucast are to increase student vocabulary in different curricular areas. Students will create definitions, sentences and create an image of words that are assigned from different subject areas. Students will then record their voice with a digital device pronouncing the word correctly, reading the definition and the sentence they have created. Students will draw or research the Internet to find images that demonstrate the meaning of their words. Students will be able to type the sentences, add images and attach the audio files into template of a webpage.
