1. The importance of the Legacy of Student Contribution. This is very important because this becomes the purpose of education. When students contribute to what they are learning more connections are established.
2. Benefits you see in having children create podcasts in the classroom. I see a lot of benefits because this allows students to watch something or read a few books and decided hey this is what I have learned from what I've read and from what I have watched from other videos. This also helps students pick out the important details and gives different reasons to discuss what they have learned from many resources. Creating podcasts allows students to communicate and create podcasts together or by themselves. This can also help with notes such as note-taking. So, if students have a hard time writing down notes, they can record them so they can be read to them. So, this would also help students that have a hard time reading if we can podcast notes then students can also hear them being read to them in or outside of the classroom.
3. Some topics that children, at any grade level, could use to create a podcast to share on your classroom channel.
So, you can create a podcast on all most any topic. some topics could be after reading the book .... what were the Three most important details you found to be important and how does it affect you.
In the book the three little pigs what was the lesson that was taught and what was the lesson learned from this book and why do you feel that this was the lesson and what could have been done differently if the pigs would have known?
Something else that podcast would be good for is research.
4. how you could set up a podcasting station in your classroom? you could create an area so students can record kind of like a news anchor within the classroom. Students can have this as a center so that they can record the information from what they have read. Then all of the podcasts can be put together and students can review them as a whole class. So, all students have the opportunity to review all the material, which opens up more time to learn other things within the classroom. This would also be one way that all students can get involved with all the resource materials that have been given.

Joining Forces in Purposeful Work: The Legacy of Student Contribution
Joining Forces in Purposeful Work: The Legacy of Student Contribution
What opportunities can you identify for incorporating multiple student jobs into your classroom activities?
Some opportunities that I can identify for incorporating multiple student jobs within classroom activities are that by allowing students to take part in being the note taker for the class, parts of assignments that have been broken up so each group has a major part that other students have to rely on or even creating Google Docs so students can work together is highly important. These opportunities will get the students more involved and determined to finish their work because there is a purpose behind what they are doing its important right? Another thing that I like is that giving these activities to students will allow us as educators to help all students and teach students that it is okay to rely on help, but it is our job to take part in learning and the importance of learning and helping others.
How could you help your students create an educational legacy that would outlast their own student experiences?
Allow students to help make a classroom blog so all of their hard work will be able to be reviewed by other students down the line as well as themselves. Allow students to make a portfolio for their work to move on with them after high school. Teaching students how to do videos together to create memorable moments.

The importance of the students as Global Communicators and collaborators.
It is important that students can be Global communicators because students can be more creative and create more purposeful and meaningful work. Students need to be able to talk with others to create connections while learning to connect with others around the world. Today many people are communicating with emails and online resources such as Skype and other options around the world that are connected through the internet. Students can relate more to what is going on around them if educators can help students transition into global communicators and then students will be able to make more connections and learn new skills.
When giving students projects where they can be collaborators, students are more willing to contribute to the project. This allows students to rely on each other while mastering the content that they need to learn. These skills allow students to work more efficiently and allow the teacher to help teach all students while all the students are also learning from each other within the classroom. Making connections is the key and allowing students to be Global Communicators and collaborators is effective to help students make a difference in the world while connecting with others worldwide.
