Duke University using Ipods

At Duke University they have come out with a new way of studying. That takes technology to another level. Duke started a program last year that involves Ipods. Duke is using the Ipods in the classroom as a tool for teaching and learning. They have over 1,200 students using them. They are using the Ipods to download lectures or a different language to learn or even music like Jazz.

Duke has since then doubled the number of classes that are using the Ipods as a teaching tool from over 42 classes. So the students can listen to the lectures over again to make sure they have the material. They can even use them as a studying guide for a test.I think that it is a wonderful idea. They are bring technology to another level. To help students even more. So if the student is sick they can still download the lecture and listen to it that is just amazing.
