title: Podcasts--an adjunct to the teaching of dentistry.
abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate how clinical students reacted to the use of Podcasts for undergraduate teaching. The most popular way of listening to them was on a computer. Students scored highly the subject matter of the Podcasts and used them for learning around the subject, especially during examination time. Podcasts are a valuable vehicle for delivering learning materials to students: offering flexibility but in tune with students' love of downloading materials to use when they wish.
