Apple iPod Learning Lab

iPod Touches can be used in a variety of ways to enhance a student's educational experience. Audio-recording, HD video recording, podcasts, audiobooks and ebooks are just a few of the ways a teacher can use the iPod to instruct students. For example, a class could start by viewing a video on the life of Edgar Allen Poe. Then one group could listen to a poem by Poe, record a summary with the built-in mic and email to the teacher. Another group could read a digital version of a Poe story, find a critiical review on the internet and blog about their reaction to the critique. With Wi-Fi connectivity, students can access the entire world at their fingertips for a fraction of the cost of a mobile MacBook lab.
