My Project

I am the librarian at a rural high school, and we are in need of some new technology to help our students learn skills that will make them more marketable as they head to college or into the job market. We have outdated or nonexistent recording equipment, and podcasting is a very popular media platform. There are so many skills that go into producing a podcast such as researching, planning, interviewing, editing, and marketing. Podcasting can be an amazing way for students to combine their passions and skills to produce a finished product.

Please consider donating to this project to help us purchase podcasting and media production equipment for our high school.
