The Use of iPods

I think iPod usage in the classroom is a great step in educating students. It is a way of learning that can be used anywhere. iPods are no longer just being used for music downloads, they have taken on a more complex role...aiding in education. This link is a great site in explaining how iPods are being used in the classroom. Duke University gave out free iPods to students who enroll in the classes that require them. iPods are being used to enhance classroom materials, lectures, and assignments.

iPods are an awesome way to help students learn materials. They can become study aids for students. They can be used as a review before an exam. Having all this information available right from your iPod is amazing. Being able to have the lectures on audio will allow students to be able to listen to their iPod while they are doing other things. Having the information available on the iPod is conventient because you can take it anywhere you go. Down the road textbooks could possibly be replaced by the iPod.
