The article was in the same edition of Innovate. It provides small study of Postcasting in Engineering. The findings seem to map other studies I have heard about...namely that the students like and use it, but it doesn't seem to improve performance (ie exam results). This leaves teachers wondering if all the effort is worth it (yes but you can see their point). Anyway I don't agree with some of their thinking but found the podcast ideas useful. I particularly liked the idea of recording weekly group meetings where a small number of student discussion and reflection on their work and relevant topics. Might work in our context??
