This is the Six Sounds in Search of an Author Project. The goals of this project is to teach students and educators how to create and mix audio for a podcast, as well as demonstrate how this technical skill can help students develop important 21st-century skills.  It's a project I've done in classes from 3rd grade to graduate school and as an educational promotion for ISTE and NJAET. 

Study Jams is a Scholastic website designed to help elementary school students learn and review math and science information through songs and videos. To use Study Jams students search for a topic in the math or science category. Each Study Jam offers a short tutorial on that topic in the form of a video, slideshow, or song. When there is a song available Study Jams provides a karaoke format for kids to sing along if they like.
