This project-based workshop is ideal for self-motivated individuals who want to build on what they have learned in CMST 150. Students may work individually or as a group to produce a single, longer format podcast, and/or plan and convert a previous one into a pilot for a series. Project management is heavily emphasized, from determining the format and style of podcasts to distributing them to a hosting site.
