iPods in Education conference » Moving at the Speed of Creativity

  • Successful educators realize that teaching techniques, which appeal to the learner, are ever evolving. Identifying novel and enticing teaching techniques requires educators to acknowledge and exploit student interests, which make learning more appealing and efficacious. Recent trends suggest that students have developed a fascination with iPods and Podcasting. The use of Podcasting allows teachers and students to create authentic audio and video material, while the mobility of the iPod allows for anytime, anywhere learning. The combination of these two technologies has prompted a greater interest in learning than could have ever been expected. The Beyond4Walls Conference will focus on using iPods and Podcasting in Education.
