3 tips for converting research papers & curriculum to podcast
Field-tested patterns from teams already shipping audio with Sprep.
Mirror your syllabus week-by-week — one episode per topic makes it easy for students to track progress.
Publish each pre-reading 48 hours before class — long enough for a commute, short enough that they remember it.
End every chapter with two open questions to seed in-class discussion or a discussion-board prompt.
Generate a parallel 'exam-prep' cut from the same source — one for first-pass learning, one for revision.
