2007 Law Student Podcast Survey Results
I have compiled the results from the 2007 Survey of Law Students who were in podcasted courses.
First, the number of students responding was a less than half from last year (120 in 2007 vs. 300 in 2006).
A couple of interesting trends are noticable. More students knew about podcasting this time around.
More students used portable MP3 players to listen to podcasts than before (24% vs. 17%), but the PC was the primary listening device.
More students listened to podcasts from other professors (15% vs. 8%), so awareness of podcasting professors is growing.
Podcasts as attendance-supressors seemed to decline with this survey. 2% said they attended less classes vs. 7% last year. 11% said they skipped classes vs. 12% last year.
Students rated podcasts value as EXCELLENT or ABOVE AVERAGE at about the same rate – 75% in 2007 vs. 74%.
