We’re all used to the term lockdown due to the current global pandemic that never seems to end, but lockdowns are not a new concept. The podcast I listened to, Letters from Lockdown, explores stories of isolation from before the COVID-19 pandemic. Each podcast episode has 3-4 short recountings of individuals during a lockdown, recited by the individuals in the story themselves, to gain further understanding to deal with the current pandemic.
In my google slides lesson, I want to figure out if the knowledge of previous lockdowns can help us during Covid, as the podcast says it can. With this bonus material project, I hope to prove the validity of the primary purpose for listening to the podcast- learning to deal with the new lockdown.
