About
ePod is a pilot project that makes use of Podcasting technology to deliver lecture materials to students who can listen/view them on their PCs or portable multimedia players.
Education podcast has gained widespread popularity in Western countries, but it is still relatively novel in local institutions. Many of the world's leading Universities have adopted education podcast, as it encourages self-learning, helps to spread knowledge, while at the same time serves as an excellent publicity tool.
Currently, ePod provides lecture contents (MP3, MP4 or PDF) of selected courses under the Engineering Faculty only. However, there are plans to expand this service and our ultimate goal is to provide podcasts and webcasts to all kinds of programmes or events inside CUHK.
