dumptruck media was created to help students thrive

DumpTruck Media was formed for one sole purpose: Help middle school-aged students find their voices, hone their speaking skills, and gain confidence in their ability to communicate. Through years of first-hand experience, we learned that one of the most effective ways of students doing so was by helping them learn how to ideate, write, create, perform and produce podcasts.

The SandBox network is a safe and emotionally secure place for all student's podcasts to live and be heard, without judgement, review or comments. The content, created by students, and guided by their teachers will only be available to themselves and other network members.  

Student safety and privacy are our number one priority. You parental consent allows your student to confidently and safely take part in this unique creative venture, fostering their creativity and communications skills in a positive, supportive and controlled environment.

The founders of DumpTruck Media want a SandBox membership to be helpful for both students and teachers - giving them both a creative and unique way to connect, teach and learn. The goal of this whole endeavor is to help students gain new communication skills and benefit overall from the self-confidence that comes with successfully doing so.
