Abstract

Today's global economy requires students to develop the skills, knowledge, and attitudes necessary to live and work across borders and within diverse cultural contexts. Following Britain’s exit from the European Union and the Erasmus programme, internationalisation has become even more important in the strategic planning and curriculum design of higher education in the United Kingdom. This paper examines how podcasting can serve as a pedagogical tool to enhance the internationalisation of curricula and support meaningful learning outcomes. While international educational partnerships, and transnational student collaborations across institutions are widely practiced, they often face challenges such as lack of immediacy and personal connection. However, with its accessibility and widespread appeal, podcasting offers an ideal medium for fostering international student collaborations.
