After reading some research done about using iPods as an instructional tool in the classroom, I really like the idea. The site explains how a lot of professors are experimenting using this method and are having positive results. It also mentioned how it could be used in the K-12 classrooms as well. iPods are mobile and can hold a lot of information. Prerecorded lectures and lessons can be loaded onto it and used in class and at home.
It also mentions how students with ADD or ADHD seemed to do much better because they are not so easily distracted because all other noises are blocked out by the headphones. It says that it is good in that those who want to learn can really pay attention and do better by having all of the resources. I personally like the idea and found the article interesting.
