Unit 7 project/discussion

Class and Professor,

In planning a podcast, you must know your audience, pick a theme, research talking points, and practice (Villano, 2008).  For my podcast, my audience is apparent… it is all of you, my classmates and fellow students.  To research how to make a successful podcast, I read this week’s reading assignments and found that it is important to wisely edit your podcast to ensure correct length based on your audience.  With students (my audience) it is pointed out that ‘if you want students to sit through the podcast in one sitting, it needs to be under 15 minutes’ (Villano, 2008).  Time and more importantly, your word choice, should not be wasted to get your point across to students.  I have personally found this to be important as a professional trainer.  Because of this, I plan on podcasting about the ‘economy of words’ and how to apply this to communicating.
