I went to Soundzabound (www.soundzabound.com) and explored different projects and examples.   All you need is your school’s username and password and you are in!  I then went to student productions, project examples and soundz audio below the demo on using Soundzabound on the ipad.  There is also a tutorials button you can check out if you need more help.  The tutorial I looked at was one on “Create a podcast in Garageband.”

 My students usually use Garageband to make podcasts and this resource would help enhance those products.  I teach freshmen English.  One of the problems that I have encountered with students is that they take too much time on finding pictures and music and not enough on the content of the project.  Showing how to use Soundzabound should help this problem.  By using the category search tool, students should be able to narrow down the sounds easier and faster than in the past.  The objective of the podcast is to relate information to their other classmates in a fun way.  As a class, we have many conversations about what tone means and how it is achieved in many different medias.  Music is a very easy way for students to identify or create the tone they want.  Soundzabound can help achieve this.
