750-1250 word podcast script document
Step 1
Review the requirements for this podcast script.
In this assignment, you will explore the effects of biotechnology on daily life; you will also provide an applicable definition of ecology in a written podcast script containing two segments. The podcast script requirements are listed here:
Podcast Segment 1 Title: Neighborhood Ecology
Consider a habitat that you live in or visit regularly. Perhaps it is a nearby lake, river, forest, or even an urban habitat. Educate your listeners about some of the undomesticated species of plants or animals that share this habitat with you.
Discuss some interactions among these different species and how they may affect each of these populations.
Walk your audience through a hypothetical scenario in which one of these species is removed. Consider how this might change the remaining populations and whether this is something that would affect the human population.
Podcast Segment 2 Title: Biotechnology in Your Face
Educate your audience about common products they consume that involve genetically modified organisms. These may be foods, medicines, or clothing.
Discuss the public’s perception of these products, and then compare these perceptions with the facts. Separate invalid from valid concerns about health and the environment.
Finally, discuss the ethical implications of human DNA technologies.
Step 2
Write a two-segment podcast script.
In a 750-1250 word document, write a two-segment podcast script that meets the topical requirements listed in Step 1.
Format your script in the following manner:
All podcast segments should be contained in a single document.
Label each podcast segment with the podcast segment title provided in the script requirements.
At the end of the script, cite the sources you used in APA style. This information will not count toward your final page count total.
Use clear, concise sentences.
Use language intended for a listener as opposed to a reader. Include language that helps your audience follow along, such as “I want to talk more in depth about….”
Relate the material back to your personal experience, when possible.
Read the script out loud to yourself before finalizing it.
