CELARINO, ANDRÉ LUIZ DE SOUZA et al. THE USE OF PODCASTS AS A TEACHING TOOL IN EDUCATION: APPROACHES IN NATIONAL JOURNALS BETWEEN 2009 AND 2020. Educ. rev. [online]. 2023, vol.39, e40882.  Epub Oct 15, 2023. ISSN 1982-6621.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0102-469840882.

The current stage of technology development achieved by society allows us to state that we have been living in a fourth or even fifth industrial revolution. In that context, it is necessary to consider how education, and mostly school, as one of the places of teaching and learning, has been adapted to that new ecosystem. One of the tools that emerges from this context is the podcast, a tool that allows sharing audio in applications and hosting sites. In that way, the purpose of this work was to evaluate how podcasts have emerged and expanded in educational environments in Brazil, mapping the national production of articles through the Capes (Centro de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior) journals portal. At last, eighteen articles published between 2009 and 2020 were selected in order to form the corpus of analysis, then the institution of affiliation of the authors, their graduation areas, type of publication, most cited journals, and the chronological distribution of these citations were verified. Such data allowed us to establish that the attempts to use podcasts in educational environments have been increasing significantly between 2013 and 2020. Regarding the educational institutions, public ones stood out to the detriment of the private ones, it is also important to emphasize that 40,4% of the citations made by the authors of the corpus are books, while 28.9% are journals, indicating that this is still an area with a lot of space for research, since most books citations refer to single authors.
