BARROSO, Mauro Fernando Silva; BOMFIM, Letícia da Costa; MOURA, Lyzette Gonçalves Moraes de and SA-SILVA, Jackson Ronie. Podcast as a learning resource for biology teaching. Ciência educ. [online]. 2025, vol.31, e25007. Epub Mar 11, 2025. ISSN 1980-850X. https://doi.org/10.1590/1516-731320250007.
The return to face-to-face teaching after the COVID-19 pandemic made it difficult for basic education students to adapt to learning activities. This situation made it necessary to use the same digital technologies that were used during the distance learning period. This study investigates podcasts as a teaching tool in biology education. The qualitative methodology used involves a systematic review of the application of podcasts in the teaching and learning process. The analysis revealed that podcasts are a widely used educational resource in different countries. In Brazil, they have proven to be an effective learning tool with significant pedagogical potential due to their flexibility and accessibility. Teachers and students can benefit from new technologies and methodologies, leading to more engaging, thought-provoking, relaxed, and interactive classes.
