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.

12/24/2004 01:01 PMNow that I have a phone that takes some impressive photos (This shot is
probably the best example I've seen for color, depth, and light that
the little cam can capture), I really wish iPhoto could manage my
images instead of my preview-free bluetooth file browser.
I bet it'd be trivial for Apple to enable connections via Bluetooth
(to your paired devices) to import photos.
Apple Looking To Make iPods Droppable
Apple Looking To Make iPods Droppable
12/24/2004 12:18 PMMy IBM Thinkpad has a feature where it tries to recognize if the
laptop is falling, and if it is, to protect the hard drive to
(hopefully) prevent damage. It appears tha Apple has been
working on a similar
technology for the more-likely-to-be-dropped iPod. Apple
apparently filed for a patent on the technology in June 2003. It's
unclear from the article if IBM filed for a similar patent, but if
they had it's likely they did so earlier, because the Thinkpads
started including the feature in October of 2003.

Sources: Asustek to make iPod mini for
Apple
09/03/2004 08:23 AMAsustek Computer has received OEM orders for the iPod mini digital
music player from Apple Computer, according to market sources. Asustek
is the second Taiwan-based manufacturer of the digital devices since
Inventec Appliances also produces the iPod for Apple. Asustek will
assemble and ship the iPod to Apple from its plant in Suzhou, Jiangsu
Province (China), the sources said.
The iPod orders will help Asustek in working toward its goal of
becoming a key provider of consumer electronics products, the sources
noted. In related news, Inventec is expected to continue to supply
Apple with its current iPod models. In addition, Inventec is also
likely to secure orders for a similar version of the iPod from
Hewlett-Packard (HP), the sources said. Apple and HP entered into an
agreement earlier this year for HP to resell the iPod under the HP
brand.
Asustek and Inventec both declined to comment on the report, citing
client confidentiality
