media type="custom" key="11164340" Resources/materials needed: The students will need computers and a microphone to make their podcasts.

Technology reflection: This way the students will learn how to make podcasts and be able to learn about the different figures and events in the Abolitionist movement from each other's voices.

Evaluation: The only concern i have is that the students wont be able to speak loud enough in to the microphone because all of their classmates are around.
