Abstract: The study sought to determine the effects of basic podcast and vodcast methods on Students’ Retention and Ability in General woodwork in Technical Colleges. Two research questions were raised and answered as well as two hypotheses were formulated and tested at 0.05 level of significance. The study adopted pretest–posttest non-equivalent control group design of quasi experimental and factorial design for the study. The study was conducted in Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Abuja, Nigeria. A simple random sampling technique was used to select two technical colleges with 126 students out of a population of 156 year two NTC II general woodwork students in the three technical colleges in FCT. Abuja. The instruments used for data collection was General woodwork Achievement and Retention Tests (GWWRAT). The selected schools are Federal Science and Technical College, Orozo 72 and Government Science and Technical College, Garki 54. The instrument was subjected to face and content validation by three experts. The reliability co-efficient of the instrument was determined as 0.78 using Kuder Richardson 20 (K-R 20). The data for the study was collected by the researcher with the help of two research assistance through physical administration of the instrument. The study employed the use of descriptive statistics using mean and inferential statistics using Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) to analyse the data and test the hypotheses. The study found out that, basic podcast and vodcast teaching technique had positive effect on the retention and ability of students taught general woodwork. The study recommended among others that general woodwork teacher should adopt the use of basic podcast and vodcast teaching technique to enhance students’ retention and ability.
