Reviewer Comments:

• The CRS could not describe this unit better than its own description. This comprehensive unit guides teachers and students to “learn to create a podcast, insert appropriate sounds and background music, and learn about copyright laws as well. All software used is free, and can be downloaded for home use.” Podcasting is appropriate for a variety of grade levels, highly engaging and a nice alternate form of assessment that can be used in any curriculum. This particular unit has all the instructions, tips and hints a teacher needs to get started. Assessments and student examples are also included.
