The power of sound

It doesn’t matter where you are in the world - thanks to audio journalism, if you’re in the middle of a city or isolated in a warzone, you can still hear the latest news. In collaboration with The Economist podcast team, Topical Talk brings you a brand-new special edition set of teaching resources.

Published 01 June 2022

This lesson is more than 2 years old. Please check the facts before teaching to ensure they are up-to-date and still correct.

The five-part, fully-resourced Special Edition takes students on a journey to explore the power that sound has for reporting the news. At the end of the Special Edition, students will have the knowledge they need to create their own podcast about the world's biggest news story: climate change.
