Online and mobile learning resources are becoming more important in higher education as students expect more flexibility and diversity in the educational tools and resources they can access. One of these online resources is educational podcasts. Podcasts offer educators and students a unique way to convey and learn about new information related to an academic subject. Educational podcasts can be classified under different learning styles, strategies, and pedagogies, such as e-learning or hybrid learning, Constructivism, the scaffolding technique, supplemental tools, and cooperative learning. Past literature demonstrates a demand for educational podcasts from both educators and students. The purpose of this study was to perform an exploratory analysis on the use of podcasts in higher education, and to determine the effectiveness of these podcasts on enhancing student learning in a Sport Management Event and Facilities Management class. The research questions we were looking to answer are: Did the podcasts affect student learning? Did the podcasts influence student motivation? And finally, how useful were the podcasts? The results showed that the participants in this study had an overall positive learning experience from listening to the podcasts, and that students fell in between being unmotivated and moderately motivated to listen to the podcasts. The student population, overall, reported being in favor of using the podcasts. The findings from this study help reinforce previous findings about the usefulness and positive learning outcomes from the use of podcasts but highlight the need for instructors to find ways of improving student motivation to use podcasts.

播客在体育管理教育中的有效性

在线和移动学习资源在高等教育中正变得越来越重要,因为学生期望他们可以使用的教育工具和资源具有更大的灵活性和多样性。这些在线资源之一是教育播客。播客为教育者和学生提供了一种独特的方式来传达和学习与学术学科有关的新信息。教育播客可以按照不同的学习方式,策略和教学法进行分类,例如电子学习或混合学习,建构主义,脚手架技术,补充工具和合作学习。过去的文献表明,教育者和学生都需要教育播客。这项研究的目的是对播客在高等教育中的使用进行探索性分析,并确定这些播客对增强体育管理活动和设施管理课程中学生学习的效果。我们希望回答的研究问题是:播客是否影响了学生的学习?播客是否影响了学生的学习动机?最后,播客有用吗?结果表明,该研究的参与者从收听播客中获得了总体上积极的学习经验,并且学生处于听不到播音员的积极性和中等动机之间。总体而言,学生群体表示赞成使用播客。
