Using iPods in Education

I have clearly been remiss in letting you know that my handheld "guru," Tony Vincent, has a great series of podcasts available either on his website (March 25th post for Episode 11) or through iTunes (free for Mac or PC) called "Learning in Hand: iPods." (Search on "Tony Vincent" in iTunes-you'll find it faster.) There are 11 episodes now available including:
  1. Hard Disk Mode
  2. Downloading Videos
  3. Main Menu
  4. iPod Shuffle Tips
  5. Troubleshooting
  6. Notes
  7. iQuiz
  8. Manage Manually
  9. Photos (pt. 1)
  10. Photos (pt. 2)
  11. Artwork & Lyrics
Also, don't forget about Tony's earlier series of podcasts called "Soft Reset" which gives great tips and tricks for Palm and Windows based handheld computers.

Finally, remember that I am ready, willing and able to come to your school to offer training on educational use of handheld "gadgets" including iPods and handhelds. Just contact the CESA 7 ETS department director, Chris Rogers (crogers@cesa7.k12.wi.us) for more info.
