Podcasts can be used to engage with experts from different areas of research, providing students with perspectives that can help broaden their understanding of the subject. Podcasting also provide educators with a platform for sharing teaching experiences, expertise, and creative approaches to teaching. By creating their own podcast series, educators can invite guests to speak about teaching techniques and share successful case studies that other educators can learn from.

Audio tools can be used to introduce younger students to complex topics by breaking down information into easier to digest sound bites and allowing students to access material from somewhere outside of the classroom through a variety of devices.
