“students clearly value not only the opportunity to participate in a discussion/review session, but also the opportunity to participate in the process of creating the podcast; in other words, the podcast creation process is itself a valued learning experience.” October 2007:

37% (270 students over 4 semesters) listen to the podcasts

44% (148 students over 2 semesters) listen to the precasts

students believe that these enhanced their learning (69% for podcasts, 70% for precasts).
