Summary
"This paper
describes a simple, cost-effective and files size efficient method for
producing video podcasts combining lecture slides and audio without a
requirement for any specialist software from" (Copley, 2007, p. 387). First, Jonathan Copley, 2007 used audio and video podcasts of lectures for campus-based students about production and evaluation of student use, by conducting a research in university.
"The results from a pilot scheme delivering supplementary lecture materials as audio and video podcasts are also presented, including data on download patterns and responses to a survey of students on podcast use."(Copley, 2007, p. 387). The students were exited with the use of podcasting in lectures.

Description
"A podcast is a media file that is distributed
over the Internet for playback on personal computers (PCs) and portable media
players. Podcasting refers to the distribution
of media files by syndication feeds, through which new files are automatically
downloaded to subscribers, but media files downloaded manually from the
Internet are also generally referred to as podcasts."(Copley, 2007, p. 387). "The term ‘podcasting’
derives from Apple’s iPod portable music player and was first proposed by
journalist Ben Hammersley on 12 February 2004 to describe listening to audio
files on a portable media player." (Hammersley, 2004, p. 387).
During the first semester of 2006/7, Jonathan
Copley produced audio and video podcasts of 18 lectures for two first-year
undergraduate and two fourth-year undergraduate/Masters-level marine science courses
at the University
of Southampton
The results showed that many students had positive experiences. Also, a small percent of students said that they don't want only podcast lectures. Also, "students expressed a desire for such ‘stand-alone’
podcast materials, for example to provide briefings for assignments and
revision summaries."
Concluding Comments
Podcasting is a challenge in education. The use
of podcasting is significant during the lecture process and interesting for
students in class. This new approach of lectures can lead to an innovation of
lecture processing in education and help the students in their everyday
activities. Teacher have many benefits from the podcasting. They can use this in order to continue the
professional education.
Also, podcasting is beneficial for students. Thay can use podcasts by listening to them as part of class
research or if they missed from lectures or in order to create their own podcasts. However,
teacher have the possibility to use the parental control feature to prevent student from
downloading explicit material.
