Podcasts in the Classroom

In education, schools are introducing new types of technology in order to improve a students learning. One of those ways is by podcasting.  This method brings many benefits for teachers and students. One benefit would be an ease of accessibility.  Students are able to access any information they want anytime. They can also download information onto any device they choose to use and they can listen and watch whenever they are available. They can record information through computers, and recording devices. Teachers benefit from podcasts because they can record their classes and create an archive of lessons on the internet. Their students will be able to access information from previous lessons for reference and clarification of what was being taught the day the lesson was recorded. Students who are absent can listen to the lesson from the beginning and get an idea of what was missed, enabling them to understand better on how to complete their make up work. They will have the feeling that they're in class, when they are not. Podcasting can also give students updates and information in a faster way. they can also share information with other students. Students in time will learn how to create their own podcasts which will help them to improve their listening skills, along with making them more technologically literate.
