This was a great site from Apple that just gave a basic outline on how podcasting could work in an educational setting:

Another article I found interesting was http://www.educause.edu/ir/library/pdf/erm0561.pdf
It shed some light on how the podcast could be used to change the face of homework. Instead of meaningless homework tasks, students could reinforce the days learning by listening back to a podcast of the lecture, and even fast forward and rewind to hear the key points over and over again. It also talks about the importance of the voice that offers understanding and how students can learn concepts when it is explained to them by their teacher over a podcast -- in otherwords, "theatre of the mind" does wonders.
