- the 5 P's of podcasting i.e. Plan, Perform, Prepare, Publish and Promote and their importance in the learning process;
- the use of separate tools to carry out each of the P's above or an integrated solution for doing the whole 5 in the one application.

- Introduction to podcasts and its application to motivate students to create audio recordings for an audience;
- Discussion of the framework to ensure that the activity is structured and can result in high quality podcasts that are conducive to students learning;
- Introduction to the freeware tools and the proprietary software, Podium, that teachers may choose to produce podcasts;
- Demonstration on recording podcasts using selected tools;
- Hands-on practice of following the 5 P's to construct podcasts and publish them to a server for access after the workshop;
- Questions and answers and explanation of a task for participants to apply the teaching strategies learnt from the workshop in schools.
