Educational institutions are investing substantial resources in providing supplementary e-learning tools for lectures.
Research has not fully addressed which factors determine students’ assimilation of additional contents when traditional and innovative methods are complementarily used.
Relevance of podcasting in higher education.
Research aim:
To investigate the factors that may account for the assimilation of additional knowledge when video podcasts are used as complementary tools to lectures:
Prior knowledge gained from lectures.
Perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and attitude toward use.
The effective use of the tool.

Limitations and future research lines
Our study has expanded on previous applications of the TAM.
Success in multimedia environments depends on the attitude toward the use of the multimedia tool and its effective use, and also on the abilities of the teacher or facilitator to provide prior knowledge necessary for better understanding and comprehension of the supplemental material not discussed in class.
The combined and sequential use of these methods is key for effective learning of supplementary material provided by podcasting.
It is necessary to foster the use of new technologies by teaching staff through offering effective support and training, given its positive impact on learning.

The generalizability of this study is limited because it was conducted at a single institution and specific discipline Cross-validation is needed.
Self-selection biases of the participants
To analyse other variables in future research Academic experience, cognitive and affective attitude toward use, etc.
To compare whether our findings vary when mobile devices are used to watch video podcasts instead of computers.
