How can podcasting support student learning

This video is an overview of the use of Podcasting in Education. A podcast is an audio file (e.g. a recording of a teacher speaking) made available to students and/or staff for playing on a computer or portable media player. Podcasting can be a great alternative for delivering content or lessons, assist auditory learners and can be a novel way to provide additional material to students, to download and review at any time.

In this video, Michele will cover:

• What is a podcast?
•  Uses for podcasts
• Benefits of podcasting
• Best practice tips

Michele will also talk about some uses for podcasts in the context of teaching and offer tips on best practice in their use.
