KGNU Community Radio: Teen Pregnancy Mini Podcast

This is a story product from Colorado Equity Compass (CEC) Awardee, KGNU Community Radio. The organization has been a fixture in the Boulder community since 1978 as an independent, non-commercial entity. Alongside its diverse array of musical and news programming, it’s also an educational hub where, through programs like the Boulder County Media Gardens program it engages “bilingual Boulder County youth through the exploration of media, music, and culture in the digital and analog frontiers.” In this short podcast, a student from Boulder High School's AVID program uses statistical, social, and emotional information to show how sex education is essential for reducing teen pregnancy.

Seniors from this year's BHS AVID program participated in KGNU's Media Gardens youth initiative. The students learned basic audio editing and recording techniques produce mini-podcasts on topics they were interested in.
