E-learning has become an increasingly popular mode of teaching college students, including students in the field of kinesiology. With the rise of e-learning, it is important to examine and understand specific components of online learning, such as educational podcasts. Educational podcasts are podcasts that are developed specifically for learning purposes and are frequently developed and used by faculty members. Preliminary research suggests that many college courses already regularly use podcasts as a learning tool, as well as that educational podcasts are a beneficial tool to use to supplement the learning process. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to examine the literature related to educational podcasts. More specifically, within this paper the authors highlight the benefits of using educational podcasts, theories to apply to podcast development and implementation, types of podcasts, and strategies to properly incorporate educational podcasts within a kinesiology-related course.
