Abstract
This article will be covering the impact of podcasts in education. Multimedia has been apart of education and classroom environments for over 40 years. With the recent rise in podcast creators and consumers, it is natural that this aspect of media would also spread into education. The use of podcasts in education is controversial, one side argues that podcasts have no place in education and are merely a distraction. The same was said about PowerPoint presentations and in-class videos at one point of time, however multimedia in the classroom has become the new norm. This article will provide the argument of how podcasts are beneficial in education in multiple ways. Specifically, podcasts can be used as a teaching resource by teachers, a learning resource by students, and a preparation tool for teacher candidates.
