Welcome to Mr. Serin's ESL podcasting Page. The importance of Podcasting and Videocasting in language teaching and learning cannot be underestimated Thanks to the technology, acquiring a language is becaming more and more easier. Podcasting is the latest in internet technology. It is similar to a radio broadcast but the files are available for downloading from a website and you can have them delivered to your computer via an RSS feed. There are a lot of advantages of podcasting in education.

  • Users have full control over what they listen to and where and when they listen.
  • Audio files can be downloaded onto an MP3 player which students can take away and listen to in their own time.
  • Podcasting provides the educator with another way of meeting students' needs.
  • Family members can access podcasts at home and keep up to date with what is going on in the classroom.
