Podcasts are digital audio files that can be accessed by everyone with an internet connection where the content is ready to be listened to without minding the time and place. Currently, podcasts are listened not only for entertainment but also for educational purposes, one of which is to improve students' listening skills. This research aimed to investigate the effectiveness of using podcasts on students’ listening skills at Vocational High School No. 18, Jakarta. With one group pre-test post-test design, this research utilized the pre-experimental method, which was conducted in three meetings. The samples for this research were 33 students of Accounting Department chosen randomly. To gather the data, the researcher used a listening test with 15 multiple choices and a 10 fill-in-the-blank form as the instrument, both for the pre-test and post-test. IBM SPSS 24 was used to perform quantitative analysis on the data. The result of the data analysis revealed that the students’ mean score in the post-test was higher than in the pre-test (87.03 > 55.15). Thus, it was found that the significant value was 0.000 which was lower than the alpha of 0.05 (0.000 < 0.05). It can be concluded that the Hi is accepted and the Ho is rejected. This study recommends that teachers should consider podcasts in teaching listening skill.

General Background: Listening skills are essential for effective communication and learning, particularly in language acquisition. Specific Background: In vocational high schools, traditional teaching methods may not adequately engage students or enhance their listening abilities. Knowledge Gap: Despite the potential of digital media, there is limited research on the specific benefits of podcasts in improving listening skills among vocational students in Indonesia. Aims: This study investigates the role of podcasts in enhancing listening comprehension among Class X students at SMK Dian Indonesia through a pre-experimental design. Results: Utilizing pre-test and post-test assessments analyzed via a T-test with SPSS, findings indicate a significant improvement in listening skills, with post-test scores averaging 79.75 compared to pre-test scores of 70.60. Novelty: This research contributes to the literature by demonstrating that podcasts can serve as an effective and engaging educational tool for enhancing listening abilities in a vocational context. Implications: The positive outcomes suggest that integrating podcasts into English language instruction can foster a dynamic learning environment, providing students with diverse content and contexts to practice listening. This approach not only addresses existing gaps in language education but also promotes the adoption of innovative teaching methods in vocational schools, thereby enriching the overall educational experience. Highlights: Significant Improvement: The study found a notable increase in students' listening skills, with post-test scores rising from 70.60 to 79.75. Innovative Learning Tool: Podcasts are introduced as a dynamic and engaging medium for enhancing language comprehension in vocational education. Practical Implications: Integrating podcasts into English instruction can diversify content and contexts, enriching the learning experience for students. Keywords: listening skills, podcasts, vocational education, English learning, student engagement
