Finding Information (15 min)

Idioms and AI: Type in any random sentence into Google and then “meaning” afterwards, and you’ll get an AI explanation of a famous idiom or phrase you just made up. For instance, “the joy of sporks is the way we build relationships” and “meaning”.

Why did you get the result you got do you think?

Finalize Scripts (30-45 min)

Incorporate comments (divide up?), proofread, make sure written well for narrator (narrator practices). Final link up with other episode groups to make sure consistency exists in way you want it to exist, have final “throughline” of what connects the podcast episodes together, etc.

Reflection Assignment (20 min)

Go to Brightspace and download the assignment prompt.

Choose one of the “review” areas and start reviewing. Write down one thing you want to write about after review.

What did we come up with?

  • Emotional roller coaster that I go through during semester in the journal. How writing can help you see how you are doing in your life and think about it more.
  • Reaction post writing to think through how audio could be helpful for my learning
  • Writing and perceiving details, pay attention to more details

Next Time (5 min)

-journal due Wednesday: What’s your plan for the last couple of weeks? How can you prepare yourself? How can others help you? How can you help others? How can you get through this with other people? How can you ask for help if you need it? Or, how can you put yourself in a position where you feel confident that you will need minimal help? It’s okay to need help. But think about how you, in this moment a few weeks ahead of final projects and exams, that you can plan ahead of what is to come. So, how can you do that, both mentally and emotionally?
