As a Language Arts teacher, I could use podcasting as
1)a tool to read sections of the textbook or novel to those who are auditory learners
2)to place the vocabulary lists for spelling tests in case a student was absent on test day
3)students can create podcasts of presentations so others may listen (especially for those who do not enjoy public speaking)
4)when teaching a poetry unit, the teacher can read the poems on a podcast so the students can get examples of how a particular poem should sound when read
5)listening to grammar rules when the textbook is just too much for the students
Some decent links that I've found for classroom use are:

When I was in school I was horrified of public speaking and to have the chance to do it through a podcast would have been a great way for me to easy into public speaking. Good idea
