Forest Hill College
The idea
Forest Hill College is empowering students to share their perspectives through a podcasting program that builds communication and digital media skills. Students will plan, produce and publish their own podcast episodes for a real audience.
The impact
With support from Bank First's Teaching Initiatives Program, students will have the opportunity to develop and share their own podcast content with a wider audience. The initiative strengthens literacy, confidence and creativity. Success will be reflected in the quality and quantity of podcast outputs, as well as increased student confidence in communication.
