This explorative qualitative study investigates EFL freshmen’s perception of the impact of creating
pronunciation podcasts on their pronunciation skills. The study was conducted with the participation of 80
freshmen, enrolled in a Teaching English as a Foreign Language teacher education program at a Turkish state
university. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, investigator notes, records of dashboard
activities, analytics and performance tracking records of the LMS, and podcasts created by the participants
as well as the recordings of the peer feedbacks on the discussion board. Analysis of the data was done
through content analysis technique, presenting the thematized findings through analytical generalizations.
Results have shown that the participants have positive views of creating pronunciation podcasts and that
podcasting freed them to a great extent from the spatio-temporal limitations of the classroom, allowing them
to study and practice pronunciation at their own convenience. The findings are discussed with reference to
pronunciation, recommendations for EFL freshmen are made, and implications are offered.
