My belief is that students have a voice and they can use virtual platforms to communicate, educate, and self advocate; thus changing society for the better. When these students find that their voice is important and not as unheard as often though, they are empowered and their learning may grow exponentially.
My plan:
Introducing my students to podcasting.
Giving my students their nonfiction narrative assignment with the added element of a podcast.
Having them tell their story using sensory details to paint an image to the listener.
Having students think about how this event changed them and their life.
Allowing them to listen to others to understand those around them.
Continuing to use podcasting for other responses to hear so many more voices that do not often share.
Added element of starting up the school newspaper again at my school so that students may voice their opinions through their words.
