| Podcasting | PRINT | | A Teaching-with-Technology White Paper |
Pittsburgh PA (USA), July 2007 – Podcasts are a relatively new tool in teaching at universities. The Office of Technology for Education and Eberly Center for Teaching Excellence at Carnegie Mellon University has recently published a white paper on Podcasting.
Sharing audio and video files on the Web has been possible for 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? How does this new technology and its widespread adoption create new opportunities in education? Is it just a passing trend, or is there genuine potential to improve the quality of the educational experience and learning outcomes?
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.
