1.How did your podcast creation go? Be specific.
2.What problems did you have making your podcast? (with Garage Band, your partner, scripting, interviewing, et cetera) Why did you have these problems?
3.What was the best part of the podcast, in your opinion? Why is it the best?
4.What would you have done differently? Why?
5.What went smoothly with making your podcast? Why?
6.What grade would you give your podcast? Why?
7.Think of ways you could use podcasting in the classroom. Write down at least four.


1.Because of the fact that this was our first Podcast, Sophia and I had some technical difficulties. Well, almost all of them were technical. We had some laughing issues and at first, we couldn't do anything but laugh but we got over it soon. Our podcast is pretty normal. I don't think it's either good or bad.
2.We had some laughing issues and I think we had this issue because this was our first time making a podcast and trying to sound like someone else is pretty funny. We had some disagreements at first but as we got going, we just started agreeing on things. After I learned how Garage Band worked, it wasn't so hard.
3.I thought that the fact that we got share what we thought about the election was the best part of the podcast. I also thought that being able to work with your friend was fun, too.
4.I would've tried to make the podcast a little bit longer and a bit more happy. My voice could be a bit happier, too. I sounded like a really bored person.
5.I don't think anything really went smoothly. We had some problems with everything.
6.Just for the sake of getting a good grade and being honest, I think I would give my podcast a B. It's not that great. At least I don't think so.
7.You could use podcast to teach in the classroom. You could do a project on it so that you don't actually have to speak in front of the class. You could use it to make an opinion about something like the 2008 election. You could use it to just have fun or remind yourself of what to do if you're the type who forgets everything.

I decided to change my theme! It used to be ornithology and paleontology but I think I want to change paleontology into ethology! Ethology is the study of animal behavior. It sounds a bit more exciting than paleontology, so....
