This is an evaluating activity with the power words compare, construct and critique. The technologies being used in this activity is the web page PodBean and RubiStar. PodBean is a good place to find educational podcasts that is authentic and relevant. RubiStar is a online rubric service, that will provide the students with an easy way to make a form for their evaluating criteria. There is not much difference between making the form physically, compared to using RubiStar. The benefit of using RubiStar is that the students can not lose their piece of paper, and they can hand in the Rubric ID to the teacher at the end of class, and still work on it at home.

Into:
The class will make a list of criteria for what they think should be included in a short, educational podcast about the election. The students will make their own individual lists using the online rubric maker RubiStar.


Through:
The class will listen to a short, educational podcast about the election on PodBean.com, which the teacher has chosen and listened to beforehand. They will take notes, and have the criteria form in front of them while listening.

Beyond:
The class will summarize together which of the criteria was met and not. After going through the podcast, and summarizing it in plenary the teacher will ask the students; if they were to make a list of criteria again, is there any changes they would make? At the end of class, the students will hand in their RubiStar Rubric ID so that the teacher can assess their forms.
