Abstract: Audio can be a powerful influence on student learning given the right conditions. Based on Paivio’s and Mayer’s theories about multimedia learning, just-in-time audio are relatively short audio files in response to specific student learning issues. Instructionally significant is that these audio files are created in response to a clear learning need identified by the instructor through student questions in the classroom, email messages or online discussion boards. These audio files provide timely and targeted conceptual scaffolding for students that can be easily downloaded from the course website and referenced as often as the student determines is necessary to master the content or concept. Our presentation will provide a short overview of the steps the authors took in assessing the course concepts that required just-in-time audio development. Then we’ll look at student reactions to this type of educational support.
