I think I'm starting to get why there's an overabundance of podcasts now

They do know everyone is doing a podcast right? It's oversaturated at this point, also a essay would be more professional:V

Maybe they're doing it so they can have something to listen to while they grade other papers

Feed two birds with one bag of seeds kind of scenario

I know its been a sec since I've been in school, but.... Podcasts??? For a final???
Are the professors unable to read anymore?

This is the fourth semester in a row I've had at least one class do podcasts, or video reviews, or some other "influencer"-type bullshit.

At first it was just annoying. Now it's getting infuriating.

It just screams "how do you do fellow kids" energy

It REALLY fuckin does...

Not everyone wants to make influencer content, damn, thats one way to make people WANT to write essays lmao

I can pump out essays SUPER easy. There IS an essay portion to the final, and it's only 1000 words.

1000-word essay? I could get that done in just a couple hours, if that.

Write an essay and then record it as a podcast?

Is this a language class?

Oh man, podcast for a final sounds not very efficient. XD

"I would much prefer to do an essay."
"Oh okay, we have an alternate assignment for that."
"Thank god-"
"The assignment is to make an, at minumum: 4 hour, youtube friendly video essay on your research topic. We are not providing you with an editor. If you don't get at least 500,000 views you fail."

is it maybe possible that their reason might be that it's easier to chatgpt an essay than it is to fudge a voice recording? or maybe they're gaugeing vocal tone to look for confidence?

agree tho that sounds like a nightmare, logistically

P... Podcast. As a final project? That's. That's bad. Worst I ever had to do was like in class presentations.
