Podcast: ELLIS ISLAND

  1. I think that your video was very informative. I liked the way that you used many pictures which were interesting and clear. I would recommend just raising the volume of your speech because it was a bit difficult to hear despite that I put it in the highest volume. I was also expecting that you would give an example of the part when you were saying about the names being changed to make them more American. Overall, I think it was great.

  3. This was a great video with clear audio recordings and reasonable pacing of words. The most effective technique you used was the type of videos used in addition to the timing of the words and pictures. For example, the animated map showing the path immigrants took to America is an effective visual that can help students see where and how many groups came to America from Europe. Another effective video is of the immigrant family looking at the Statue of Liberty. Because this was such an important symbol to the immigrants, it was beneficial to include this in your presentation so that your students can get a glimpse of the immigrants' perspective. Good job! (Your layout is also very appropriate for the podcast topic!)

    I would suggest making the text larger because there are times when it is difficult to read. However, it does not hinder the overall learning experience.

  4. I loved your podcast. It was very informative I actually learned somethings I didnt know. I also liked how you asked questions at the end to make sure the students understood, I didnt think to do that. And your sound is good I know how much work you had to do with the sound lol. Great podcast ;)
