Why Podcast Your Research?
Episode notes
How does an academic get started in podcasting? Why would they want to get behind the mic? How can it benefit their scholarship and career? Following on from a very busy academic podcasting workshop at SETU, Stacey Copeland of the University of Groningen joined Jenny O’Connor and Bruce Wardrop (both SETU) and 9plus host Rob O’Connor in studio to reflect on the session while thoughts were fresh in their heads.
This workshop was funded by the National Forum for Teaching & Learning Strategic Alignment of Teaching and Learning Enhancement (SATLE) scheme. https://www.teachingandlearning.ie/funding/#!/Funding-Calls
