In this episode, Dr Emily O'Reilly and alumnus Andrew Strankman from the School of Biomedical Sciences continue their excellent discussion on podcasting in education, this time going back to the basics. How do you record a podcast, and why would you want to? What tools would you need to begin podcasting, and what are some production tips worth remembering? And which kind of podcast would most enrich your course's delivery?
This is the second in a two-part conversation facilitated by Teaching Matters' Eric Berger. In this short series, Emily and Andrew expand on the 'whys, whats, and hows' of educational podcasting – and digital education more broadly – in light of their recent PTAS-funded research project on podcasting in education.
2.15 Podcasts as a 'continuum' – podcasts can take many forms (from the informational monologue to the group podcast), but which suits your teaching needs?
8.52 How does one even begin to make a podcast? Our speakers consider the tricks and tools of the trade.
17.05 Barriers to entry in podcasting, or their lack thereof: “Just jump in and record”, say Emily and Andrew, “it’s easier than it sounds!”
24.40 Student responses to podcasting – increasing engagement and sense of interaction
30.19 What should both teachers and their institutions remember about the use of podcasts in education? Emily and Andrew reflect on embracing trial and error.

Episode 1: Introduction to the Student Wellbeing Service
In this podcast episode, three Student Wellbeing Advisers (Douglas, Sibyl and Tessa) introduce the service, including 1-to-1 support, drop-ins and proactive activities.
They also discuss some of the common themes in student wellbeing that they’ve seen over the past 2 years. Tessa discusses the significance of transition for students going from their family homes to an independent life as a student, especially when coming from a different culture. Douglas discusses the wellbeing challenges of online students studying from their home countries. The advisers reflect on the diversity of the student population, and with that the diversity of wellbeing challenges. Sibyl discusses the prevalence of isolation and loneliness amongst students and the particular barriers neurodivergent students might face when transitioning from the structures of family and school to studying at a university.
The advisers then introduce the upcoming podcast topics for the Wellbeing series.
