University of Wisconsin Offers Podcasting Rewards

Knowing that their target potential student is a 17 year old who spend 3 hours a day engrossed in digital media, the UofW is encouraging their instructors to come up with ways to integrate podcasting into the curriculum with awards of up to $800 for good ideas.

"There's something more personal, more direct about hearing a professor's voice on a podcast that you don't always get in a large lecture hall with several hundred other students," says Erin Lee Lesselyoung, a fourth-year art major.

No kidding.

I've written about podcasting in education and so-called training-casts before, and using podcasting as part of a more traditional educational process is the next natural step.

Even if the U only records lectures as podcasts, that's still a major advantage to students. Being able to replay lectures to cover off trickier points is a boon but if the faculty gets creative and uses audio to expand the lectures, that's even better.
