PODCAST Peer Review: By Kati Schweinefus Do you think the podcast is educationally sound? Why or why not?  The podcast was very educational. She was thorough in her explanations and even gave examples. Good job!

What do you suggest to improve the educational value of the podcast? In order to improve the educational value of the podcast, I would suggest being a little louder as it was a little difficult to hear at the beginning. There also was not any music in the recording.

PODCAST Peer Review: By: Hannah Stevlingson

Do you think the podcast is educationally sound? Why or why not? Yes I think the podcast is educationally sound because she incorporates science and objects of matter. She gives examples of how the solids can change and the matter value may or may not change.

What do you suggest to improve the educational value of the podcast? I think she did a great job talking at a moderate rate, but could possibly make sure that the sound throughout is the same. Other than that it was great!

Do you think the podcast is educationally sound? Why or why not? Yes I think the podcast is educationally sound because she incorporates the three important states of matter and gave examples of how each can change.

What do you suggest to improve the educational value of the podcast?- I think Kim did a great job! But if I were to give any suggestions it would be to make the podcast interactive in some way. Great teacher voice though.
