International Media Law, Policy & Practice (IMLPP)

Podcasts

IMLPP students are increasingly interested in the course role of organizing and recording their own podcasts on various topics discussed during the seminars. The students who choose this option are given a training session by colleagues from ICTO (technical and editing skills) and Faculty’s Teaching and Learning Centre (didactic aspects). The format of the training is interactive and hands-on: the instructors and students make a podcast about making a podcast. The students then work in pairs, conceptualizing and teasing out their chosen topics; identifying and inviting suitable experts; and booking the podcast studio for the recording. They work with semi-structured scripts and incorporate space for the experts’ own suggestions and insights.
