There are more than two million podcasts currently available, and the number of podcasts—and the audience for them—grow by the day. It has become essential for journalists to gain the skills required for creating compelling audio stories. In this course, students choose a topic they would like to explore in a podcast of their own and they develop the skills necessary to produce it: reporting, audio storytelling, scripting, interviewing, and basic audio production.
