Podcasting involves creating and distributing audio files that can be accessed and listened to by users on their own time and devices. It is becoming increasingly popular in education as it allows educators to meet students where they are online and on portable devices. While there are some downsides like requiring sufficient bandwidth, podcasting provides opportunities for communication, celebrating achievements, and delivering educational content in an accessible format. The implications for education include using podcasts for administrative announcements, staff training, student assemblies, lectures, and allowing students more control over their learning.
