Podcasting

What is podcasting? Why should I learn how to create a podcast? Are students listening to podcasts? Where can I find a podcast that is related to education?

Podcasting was introduced to higher education by Duke University in 2005. For years Duke University had been recording lectures using analog tapes- podcasting and publishing lectures was a logical next step for the faculty and staff at Duke. After a few conversions to the existing infrastructure, lectures were recorded as digital files and posted on to the university website. In September 2005 Duke hosted a Podcasting Symposium to teach others about podcasting, to read more about this topic please click on the following link: http://isis.duke.edu/events/podcasting/
