• A 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 (explore the  website for examples). 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.
