Apple in Education: Part V
Apple in Education: Part V
12/19/2004 02:51 PMMost people think of music when they hear the word “iPod”, but the
diminutive music player has other attributes that are making it an
invaluable tool for the classroom.
“The iPod is a portable tool for diction and sound recording, taking
and reading notes, storing files and photos and listening to audio
books and newspapers,” Apple says on its Education website. With
enough space to store four weeks of continuous music, or 40,000
minutes of audiobooks, or a months worth of newspaper articles, the
40GB iPod is a “pretty big backpack”, Apple says.
In fact, the iPod has proven itself so useful as a learning tool some
schools are making it mandatory for students to own one. At the
Brearley School, a private school for girls on the Upper East Side of
Manhattan, the iPod became a necessity on the school supply list this
year, according to a New York Times article. The iPod was incorporated
into foreign-language and classics courses and for about 300 girls in
grades 7 through 12 for homework and classroom assignments.
The NY Times reports that Apple says Brearley's mandatory-iPod program
is the first it has heard of at the secondary-school level. At the
post-secondary level, the iPod is also becoming a vital tool. This
fall Duke issued an iPod to each of its 1,650 incoming freshmen and
has tried to incorporate the device into several courses, including
music, language and engineering. Last year, Georgia College & State
University began lending the devices to students for use in several
humanities courses.
If the iPod’s multiple features already listed here weren’t enough to
convince parents and educators of its importance beyond a music
player, it can also keep track of schedules through its support of
vCalendar and iCalendar files, which can be exported by Microsoft
Entourage, Palm Desktop, and iCal.
And finally, the alarm clock feature should eliminate tardiness in any
student who owns one.

John Lautner's Chemosphere: part

Modern.
04/07/2005 12:53 PM
The most modern home built in the
world. "From the outside it looks
like a spaceship you cannot enter. But if
you go inside, it feels very cozy… very Zen and calming. Maybe
because you are
floating
above the city, in the sky".
John Lautner's
Chemosphere residence is the product of a
fortuitous union of
architect, client, time and place.
Leonard Malin was a young
aerospace engineer in late-1950s L.A. whose father-in-law had just
given him a plot north of Mulholland Drive, near Laurel Canyon. The
only catch: at roughly 45 degrees, the slope was all but unbuildable.
Lautner sketched a bold vertical line, a cross, and a curve above it.
"Draw it up," he told his assistant.

Benedik
t Taschen owns Chemosphere (NSFW), and after 20
years of neglect the house has been beautifully
restored
