Abstract

This study investigates students’ exposure to and use of podcast services in Federal Polytechnic Bauchi. It examines students’ awareness, frequency of use, purposes of listening, and the impact of podcasts on learning and information access. Using a survey method, data were collected through questionnaires. Findings show that many students are aware of podcasts and use them mainly for entertainment and academic purposes, though usage frequency varies. The study concludes that podcasts serve as an important digital learning and information tool among students.
