Abstract

In this article we present the podcast technology and then maintain its relevance as an educational tool of inclusive education through the exhibition of some of its current applications in this field. We observed the technology through a look influenced by Paulo Freire, for which more important than the technical possibilities are the educational effectivities. Noting the nature of current use of the podcast out of school context, we highlight some of its specific features in tune with the cooperation of Celestin Freinet, to sustain the character of the suitability of using this tool to the educational demands typical of patients with visual and hearing disabilities. For the latter, a podcast careful formulation of a comprehensive educational criterion allows the expansion of this tool to access the content of orality even for those who do not have any sort of hearing. Finally, we point to the need for the school, the ownership of the podcast as a tool for inclusive education
