So far pupils evaluated Podcasts in English lessons, especially homework Podcasts, absolutely positive.
The interactivity of Podcasting does not only avoid the artificiality of language laboratories. Furthermore, it provides language for an additional playfully, interactive aspect. This aspect makes the learner forget about the fact, that he is learning English.
Podcasting is an innovation of English lessons, which opens new ground.
The use of Podcasts in class can probably be seen as a reasonable advancement of the language laboratory idea.
