Podcasting is an audio content syndication through RSS feeds in the audioblogs. As a new application of audioblogging, podcasting uses the enclosures in RSS feeds for syndication and distribution of audio content to mobile music players on the Web. Despite the advantages of podcasting, there is a need for research that focus on the use of podcasts as learning objects. Incorporating podcasts into e-learning systems require some design and translation work to achieve the pedagogical needs. This paper presents an introductory investigation on approaches to tailor and use audio podcasts as learning objects in learning management systems and learning object repositories.
