I think that at the end of the day students would find lnsieting to a podcast of a lecture, even more boring than sitting in the lecture itself. Podcasts are fine if they provide extra value-added material easily accesible to the student it then provides it as an option to further a students study, rather than a necessity. Too much obligation can put students off.It’s also a lot easier to flick between pages of a document/powerpoint uploaded to blackboard, than it is to flick back and forth in a podcast. Also material in presentations is more likely to be in a structured format making the information required from one particular weeks material a lot more findable Smock.
