Abstract
The portable MP3/MP4 podcasting device is no longer simply a medium for music or
video entertainment. It is now also a bearer of educational material. Podcasting usage
in education is increasing. The potential is to change the teaching and learning experience
significantly, as it can facilitate organisation and delivery of information tailored
to users' individual preferences and learning styles. However, there is a lack of understanding
of some of its implications and potential benefits. In this colloquium, we
examine the increasing adoption of podcasting by UK Universities over the period
2006–2007. The finding suggests that the current podcasting usages are driven mainly
by four characteristics: teaching, service, marketing and technology. Identifying and
separating out the usages assists the pedagogical challenge to focus upon a systematic
adoption of this emerging technology as an educational aid.
