iPod Literacy
While introduced as a hard drive based music player in 2001, the iPod has evolved into an essential tool for literacy in the 21st century. The availability of educational content is staggering. There are podcasts on everything from math to history to science to learning a foreign language. There is even a podcast on basket weaving.
What is even more amazing is how easy it is for students and teachers to create their own digital content for the iPod. Students can then guide their own learning at their own pace, and review content on-demand. This idea of anywhere-anytime learning means the student is no longer tethered to the classroom learning environment.

taking TCO to the classroom
he Consortium for School Networking is a non-profit association that promotes the use of telecommunications to improve K-12 learning. Its members include state departments of education, state networks, school districts, schools, individuals and companies that are committed to this goal.
CoSN launched its "Taking TCO to the Classroom" project to provide school leaders with tools to help them estimate the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) involved when they build a network of computers and wire their classrooms to the Internet.
"Ownership" in this context includes all of the costs associated with using and maintaining networked computers, no matter whether a school district owns or leases them.
TCO traditionally also includes calculations of costs that may not turn up in a budget, but that can still have an impact on school district operations--for example, when teachers must take time out of their day to address their own tech support problems.
The project is made possible through the financial support of the corporate sponsors identified below. However, CoSN is responsible for creating all the materials associated with the TCO project and retains editorial control over them. Sponsors provide input and feedback, but the ultimate responsibility for project materials remains with CoSN.
