A podcast is about spoken words and the intentional use of music, which should only be incorporated when it adds meaningful value to the listener&#8217;s experience. <strong>This year, you are free to explore any topic you wish,<\/strong> allowing you to highlight issues relevant to your students and capture the interest of their peers. Focus on high-quality content, an appropriate tone of speaking, and its effective adaptation for radio.<\/p>\n<p>As for the song category, we encourage you to showcase your ideas and express your creativity, giving you more time to develop your piece. <strong>The maximum duration is now up to four minutes, providing greater freedom for your artistic expression.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For both categories, we have organized two online workshops scheduled for December. Therefore, the submission form<strong> will not open on November 25, 2024<\/strong> as initially planned but will be available after the workshops. Through these sessions, we aim to inspire you to create both the song and the podcast.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, you can begin brainstorming in class to decide on the theme you\u2019ll focus on this year.<\/p>\n<p>The largest podcast and song competition for students is here, ready to welcome children\u2019s imaginative and inspiring creations.<\/p>\n<p>The Organizing Committee<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Teachers\/Team Leaders, This year, we are excited to announce several new and engaging changes to the &#8220;Make It Heard&#8221; Contest.
