INST 2570: Introduction to Podcast Production offers interested students a chance to learn more about creating podcasts. The course will cover all of the basic skills needed to produce podcasts, from concept to streaming product. The course is project-based and will culminate in the production of episodes for the Symposia Podcast and will hopefully serve as an incubator to future, long-term projects. Class time will function as part-seminar, part-lab, and will serve as an atelier for aspiring audio storytellers.
