I am seriously considering buying an ipod touch in order to keep up with school. I wish ipods were included in our tuition here at South!Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08793445463346863958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4923012843047217196.post-53310538067830897522010-02-25T07:58:26.394-06:002010-02-25T07:58:26.394-06:00I agree that it would be great if we would put too...I agree that it would be great if we would put tools in the hands of learners. That's where they should be. And my thought when I read your comments on the gender boas issue was: I have very few males in my classes. What, two out of 20 in Class B? Now what does that say, mean, or ....?<br /><br />Good post!

I find it interesting that as a teacher, I have to work really hard to prevent gender bias... not all girls love Barbie and not all boys love Legos. As teachers, we need to offer opportunities to both boys and girls. Enjoyed your thoughts...jaxon2015https://www.blogger.com/profile/06965958623057508557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4923012843047217196.post-69452379029496715992010-02-23T10:09:11.835-06:002010-02-23T10:09:11.835-06:00Your comments on the iPod in the classroom were in...Your comments on the iPod in the classroom were interesting. The weekend before school started, I purchased an iPod Touch. I never had dreamed of how much I would use it in school. I can access my EDM310 blog, gmail, and my blog to keep up with new postings if I'm not at my computer. I could actually do a lot of my test review for my music class on my Touch as well, without being at my computer. I have a professor that will not post the homework anywhere but on the internet for two math classes, so I can get the homework assignment, past solutions and any news, on the spot, without being at my computer. All I need is WIFI. I love this thing.<br /><br />Some other applications for the iPod that I can see for me, personally, would be to somehow set up my bookmarks to reflect those on my computer, so I can access things like math information from other universities to help with homework or understanding the lecture. I like to download some podcasts for EDM310 homework to review while driving. It's nice to be mobile and have the information at your fingertips when you need it, no matter where you are.<br /><br />So I would see the same for students. The downfall I see is just in getting started. It takes some time to get the information organized for sync between computer and iTouch. So it's some time. Over the past two months, I've come a hundred miles using this thing, and it has made life easier.JackieYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02696120697100084283noreply@blogger.com
