Apple in Education: Part V


Apple in Education: Part V 12/19/2004 02:51 PM
Most 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. Part I Part II Part III Part IV
