We experienced a revolution six years ago when we combined our Global I and Global II courses and redesigned our lessons into a collaborative, streamlined, co-taught class. This new approach allowed us, as educators, to maximize our strengths, rethink our priorities, and concentrate on the needs and demands of our students. We completely transformed our students’ social studies experience—and came up with a great idea for a history-based podcast in the process.
The demands on teachers have been fairly consistent over the last few years: Incorporate more technology in the classroom; make learning fun, meaningful, and different; and develop lessons around students and their personal interests.
“The Missing Chapter" has allowed us to elaborate on lessons beyond our standard 40-minute class time and delve deeper into specific topics. Creating the episodes has been extremely fun and rewarding, and the shows have augmented student growth in ways that would not have been possible in the classroom.
The education model has changed dramatically over the past few years. Have your teaching methods changed along with it?
Producing your own podcast is fun, effective, and collaborative! "The Phils" can provide the insight and support you need to create your own!

"Thank you guys so much for the webinar yesterday. It was informative and inspiring! All of our questions were answered, and when we met afterwards, everyone was sharing ideas and getting the creative juices flowing. Quite a few of them told me it was one of the best professional developments they'd had in awhile." |
"I’m so excited to use your podcast in my ELA class! We are going to use it to increase listening comprehension and making inferences. Your voices are wonderful to listen to and the way you use words helps to make it accessible to all listeners. Thank you!!" |
