How to Use Podcasts to Reduce Student Stress

Sarah: I was teaching doctoral students and approaching podcasts as a seminal part of the information that they were consuming. And I set up the podcast discussion of using podcasts in this class to kind of, my goal at least was to reduce student stress. But what I learned when I say talk to my grad students more and more is that they wanted to treat this consumption of podcasts just like they would a consumption of the readings. They wanted to sit down and focus on it justlike they would focus on any other class resources.
