Abstract

A media file or a series of files that are distributed over Internet and played back on users’ computer, mobile phone, or portable media players is termed as a podcast. The survey is about perceptions and impact of podcast on teaching–learning practices. It especially focuses on teaching–learning process. Findings propose that the podcast contents are referred by students especially for assessment preparation and revision. In addition to that podcast helps course instructor to change from traditional teaching methods to recent way of teaching. This paper is result of initial survey of ongoing research in podcasting. We hope to make use of this knowledge to create a design that will bridge a gap and missing links identified.
