Term explanation
Podcasts are episodic audio (and sometimes video) programs distributed digitally for on-demand listening. As a learning format, podcasts offer an accessible, low-barrier way to engage with expert knowledge, industry trends, and educational content — often during commutes, exercise, or other activities. Educational podcasts are increasingly integrated into blended learning programs as a supplement to formal training materials, and are especially effective for thought leadership and continuous professional development.

The .pps format was later replaced by .ppsx as part of Office 2007's shift to an open XML-based file structure.
