Spotlight on Skills: Creating a Podcast/Oral Report

A podcast is a digital media file that is used to share a specific idea with an audience. In some cases, a podcast can be audio files, which is what you will create.

Write out your script for the podcast to ensure it meets the required time expectation and includes the required content.
Use your own words rather than reading the words from a source like a direct quotation.
Speak clearly with appropriate pace, volume, and tone.
Test your recording before going through the entire presentation in case your recording was not set up properly.
Begin your podcast by providing relevant information and establishing a clear purpose that engages the listener.
Demonstrate thorough knowledge of the topic using relevant, quality details that go beyond the obvious.
Keep your focus on the topic.
Include details from your experience on the topic, along with your researched information.
Make sure there is a brief conclusion tying together the information in the podcast.

Podcasts are assessed considering the following:

How well does the introduction set the scene?
How well is the content clear, accurate, and relevant?
Does the conclusion clearly summarize the main points?
Is the structure and flow of the podcast easy to follow?
Is the technical sound (volume and clarity) of good quality?
Is the podcast considered creative?
