Media Module

In February 2008 when the Intergenerational Learning Project started I did the media module. A general assessment of the various forms, radio, television, films, the press. Two results from that module(1) It broaden my views on the media,hence increased my interest.(2) My favourite media is radio. now the challenge of radio to increase my interest was a reality. How could I respond to this.? Being a volunteer with Age Action I had some experience of a radio studio so it was not something new. I had often wondered how my voice came across on the airways. The opportunity presented itself as part of this module. We had to submit material 1-2minutes for the airwaves here in DCU. I submitted portion of a speech by Mother Theresa of Calcutta given at the UN in New York on Friendship. The exercise went very smooth being told that I had a great voice for radio.This to me meant so much for self confidence and a wish to proceed further in this area.
