<li>This prototype has two parts. First, expanding Dr. Pinckney Benedict's Creative Writting Podcast Lab into a full Digital Humanities Studio. This will allow more diverse teams to work in mediums relatively new to the humanities. By increasing the quality and mobility of the lab, we open the door for new possibilities and set the studio up for further expansion into the realms of videograpy and external realities. </li><li>Second, the Saluki Tales Podcasting internship will be offered in the fall to History and other humanties students. Under direction of Dr. Joseph Sramek and history department chair Dr. Jon Bean, we will create a team of students who will produce and distribute a podcast which celebrates the research of students. This opportunity will give students the chance to share their research through a new medium, learn skills applicable both inside and outside the field, and finally set SIU's history program apart from all other history programs in the nation. Our research suggests SIU will be one of two universities in the united states using collaboration between faculty and students for historical podcasting, and possibly the only one which celebrates their original research.</li>

<li>Through Principal Investigator Dr. Joseph Sramek, we have recently applied for a grant of $6,600. Whilewe are optimistic in our chances for the grant, we have contigency plans to work with little to no money.</li>

<li>As stated in the overview of this page, we need more proactive aproaches to utilizing our resources at SIU, specifically eager faculty and students. By focusing on improving the experience for College of Liberal Arts and humanities students, by giving them something concrete that they ask for, we improve their education. This Past programs focused on "all freshmen" or "anyone interested" were too broad to gain a following. Our proposal leads not only to greater student successfor our humanities students, but also helps seperate SIU from its regional competition. We have the utmost confidence in our project will thrive because of its focus on a smaller group, and look forward to seeing it succeedbelieve the model can be replicated elsewhere.

<li>Our project is anchored to multiple highly motivated faculty members, and is lead by a team with a graduate and undergraduate student eager to see the program succeed. Within the department, the amount of interest by history students has been astonding, to the point where we may have to screen entrants into the internship program.</li>
