Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of podcasts as a learning tool to enhance public speaking skills among teachers. By employing questionnaires and semi-structured interviews, the research aims to obtain insights into teachers' views on the impact of podcasting on communication abilities. The findings suggest that podcasts not only improve confidence but also provide a flexible learning resource. However, challenges such as limited access to technology and insufficient training were identified. Integrating podcasts into education can significantly benefit both teachers and students.
