What is Podcast Listening?

Podcasts provide a unique medium for presenting material for the ESL learning environment. This is a course designed to increase listening input. Students will have the opportunity of listening to a variety of sources of English in a variety of contexts. Through Podcasts and the Internet, students will access listening material that both uses English, and talks about how English is learned. Students will be required to access the Internet to download programs to listen to (storing them on their ipods). Students are able to access programs whenever it suits them, providing flexibility and increased opportunity for input of a variety of materials.

  1. Bloggers who don’t have time or don’t like to read may prefer to listen to audio content or watch videos. BeyondPod allows you to subscribe, download, listen to audio podcasts and watch video podcasts on-the-go. This app is extremely useful for bloggers who are driving a lot because for them, there is very little reading time.
