LITERATURE ON PODCASTING
- Students ENJOY the medium of podcasting and tend to conceptually
understand the material better with the addition of podcasts (Vovides, 2010; Agnew, 2010)
- Podcasting is linked to increased student motivation (Vovides,
2010; Popova & Edirisingha, 2010; Tam, 2011)
- Important that podcasts are linked to the content of the class
(Copley 2007; Lazzari, 2009)
- Several studies found higher student satisfaction but not better
student outcomes (Lakhal, Hager, and Pascot, 2007; Tam, 2011)
- Experimental studies are varied as to enhancement of student
performance (Abt & Barry, 2007)
