22. Teaching English through the Lens of Social Media and Influencer Culture
Manage episode 468424599 series 3648961
In this episode of the Anti-burnout for English Teachers podcast, I give you a peak into my classroom and my process of implementing a collaborative assignment that explores the world of podcasting and social media influencing.
I talk about my strategies for divided students into groups based on their job roles, assessed their ability to produce podcasts, and created a fake Instagram account to promote their work. Through this assignment I dive into the importance of collaboration, the challenges of maintaining authenticity in a curated online identity, and the connection between English literature and the influencer phenomenon.
Tune in to for strategies to engage students in this contemporary and relevant assignment!
