Podcasting: A Teaching with Technology White Paper

چکیده
most of the last decade. Why, then, in the past two years has podcasting exploded onto the scene and become such a hot topic in educational technology?

This paper attempts to answer these questions through the exploration of educational podcasting in three realms: the creation and distribution of lecture archives for review, the delivery of supplemental educational materials and content, and assignments requiring students to produce and submit their own podcasts.
