Podcast Experience

                                               CURIOSITY KILLS

           When I heard the tasks firstly, I thought that it would be fun and enjoy it. But the real is that production is really tough work. 

         Me and my pair Mehribe chose to work on the story task and I took writing the story on me. Absolutely, this task made me think about writing a story and also forced me to be creative. Because the introductory sentence is a kind of terrifying, the plot of the story also moved in that way. 
          We used the Audiocity program for recording it and make some amendments on it after. We call our story as “Curiosity Kills” and we used four words from the list: these are "wind,kill,letter and phone". We had serious problems seriously:) But the most irritating of them was not technical at all. It was our endless laughters during recording it. In the middle of the recording, we started to laugh suddenly. I really don’t remember how many times we recorded it. When we heard our voices after recording, we felt like strangers but the strangers who have really bad voices:) When you listen it, you’ll understand us more. 
          This was my first Podcast experience. When the project was completed , we both were sure that Podcast is a beneficial technologic tool for a language teacher. Because it is easy to use and much more  interesting for students than reading  story text from a book. Using Podcast for story -telling leaves less chance for students to get bored  .It visualizes the story in the mind of the learners.
           Actually I would use such a record in my class in the future. Because the sound effects we use as supporters for the comprehension of the story make the story more clear and our English level was pre-intermediate which can be understandable for average students. Lastly, we had a fluent and bare English ( I hope:) Additionally, It can be interesting for students because it ends in an unexpected way.

            Have a nice day:)
