Reflection:
While creating the assignment I experienced surprisingly little issue with finding information on our topic, I think this is because our topic was a wide-spread issue known to a lot of people and it’s high on the priority list. The toughest part was adding the aspect of Language Arts into the podcast because I had to come up with a way to make conversation when listing off the important facts.
Our groups path to researching the topic was fairly straight-forward. I googled what information we were looking for and I found good sources quickly, and I know all the sources used are credible because the websites are made by trusted companies/government.
While recording I learnt some features of Audacity. I had previously never used Audacity before but after looking through some tutorials I was able to perform basic functions like changing the decibel (DB) volume, adding a second track, and making cuts in a track
This project ties in with my Critical Thinking because I had to think about aspects like finding a credible source for the information and formulating the information into a script. It took me the most thought to present the information while sounding like we’re having a normal conversation because it’s tempting to take the easy way and just start listing off the facts in a row to get it over with.
