Planning for Impact

The process of creating a podcast series design (from yesterday) was to identify your form and function (WHAT). Today we’ll look to the process of creating a podcast series plan (HOW)!

Your ideation plan captured the form and function of your podcast series. A few more questions to consider as you refine your idea, in to a formal design for the series;

• When will each of the series episode be shared? Will students need them to prepare for testing? Or will they be needed closer to the end of the course for the final course review?
• Will your Teachable “moments” be of value, as high level set of summary statements for course content, over multiple years? Developing and delivering a more polished (high tech) series of episodes is in your future.
• And ask yourself: Is it only students in your course who need to follow the series? Would your department be interested in following along? Might you want people from outside of the institution to follow along/access your episodes/recordings?

These are key questions to consider because they will ultimately need to be answered when you are ready to share your episodes/series with your audience.

First comes thought; then organization of that thought, into ideas and plans; then transformation of those plans into reality. The beginning, as you will observe, is in your imagination.
