EDUCAUSE Review Articles, Instructional Technologies, and Lecture Capture

This section of the ELI Guide to Podcasting was written by Carie Windham, Former Undergraduate, North Carolina State University, and Graduate Student, University of Ulster, Northern Ireland. It is also published in EDUCAUSE Review, Vol. 42, No. 3 (May/June 2007).

After becoming a podcasting convert, the author talked with other students at colleges and universities across North America about their iPod and MP3 use, their familiarity with podcasting, and how they see podcasting as part of the classroom.

Podcasting is taking its place among the dizzying variety of grassroots media now available to everyone. Those in higher education need to understand the potential uses and value of rich media authoring, bringing podcasting into courses so that students can lift their learning to a whole new level.
