Podcasting in Portugal

Im Rahmen eines Erasmus geförderten Praktikums begaben sich 8 Studierende aus den Fakultäten W und MK zusammen mit Prof. Dr. Zips zu unserer Partnerhochschule ESEC ins portugiesische Coimbra.

English:

Study trip to our partner university in Protugal with varied programme and opportunity for international exchange from October 2 - 6, 2023

Within the framework of an Erasmus-funded internship, 8 students from the faculties W and MK went together with Prof. Dr. Zips to our partner university ESEC in Coimbra, Portugal.

However, before a city and campus tour on Monday, October 2, as well as a first familiarization with the facilities and equipment for the podcast workshop, they explored beautiful Oporto the weekend before.

In the days that followed, they used the recording studio facilities for hands-on learning of how to ingest and record a podcast. Also followed was an extensive tour of the TV studio, which was currently producing a feature for local television. Getting insights here was a great asset.

In the evenings, our students were well integrated into the semester opening program by the students there. During the week there was a midnight fado serenata, a festival, a small surf course, as well as a student dinner (where only students are allowed to be present and the "older" semesters welcomed the freshmen.

On Friday, the podcasts were presented with a feedback and the motivation to repeat it next year.

Once again it became apparent that such short stays are perceived as an enrichment for the participants: Broadening horizons, changing perspectives, expanding competencies, getting to know and appreciating what is initially foreign.
