“Podcasting Is The Most Underappreciated, Underutilized Media Ever” – Podcasting News
Podcasting is the most underappreciated, underutilized media ever. Some people never try it. And many who do wind up giving it up unimpressed. Too bad.
A new study (Lecture Podcast Listeners Outperform Class Attendees) found that students who listen to lectures on podcasts test better than those who listen in class. Podcasting is a powerful educational medium, second only to books, in my opinion. But unlike reading books, you can listen to podcasts while doing the dishes.
I came across this today from one of the feeds in my feed reader. I would like to attempt podcasting in a “for real” kind of way, when there’s more time. Perhaps though it has more to do with my own sense of doubt about what it is that I have to say. To get beyond that, would be a place to start. I listen to podcasts regularly, mostly on my drive to and from work. Good ones too: This American Life, Radio Lab, and the Johns Hopkins Medical Podcast.
Perhaps I’ll start . . . . . .
