I am part of the team creating several different mobile learning tools. We make:
That was a rather long buildup to a very specific bit of news. One of our tools, Mylearning author, creates interactive content for mobile devices. But we never made enough use of audio. Sure we included sound effects and voice overs, but audio was always an extra.
I guess we were still struggling to shake off the prejudices of "e-learning on your PC".
Today, I am very pleased to announce that our author also lets you add in audio files. Not audio plus text, or audio as a background, but pure, podcast-style audio files.

We have had recordings of lessons, or public talks
We have a few online e-learning courses that include podcast summaries.
All of these can now be more easily included into the mix when you make your mobile content.
