It's that time of year! New semester, new assignments, new Student Podcast Challenge. Yep, NPR's Student Podcast Challenge is back for its third year, and it is open for submissions and WUKY will once again be hosting local schools for brainstorming sessions and “how-to” advice on getting started with podcasts. The Challenge is aimed at students between grades 5 and 12, and NPR Ed will provide a series of suggested prompts and a guide for student podcasters and their teachers. NPR’s hope is to generate a lot of excellent material from around the country, as well as, as a chance to add youth voices into the national conversation. The deadline for submissions is March 15th.
