Week 9

iTunes University is "transforming learning on campus, off campus, and where there's no campus at all" (www.apple.com). iTunes University allows students to search, download, and play course content. It is used just like you would download music. Search the title and download it... as simple as that. Students would have access to it 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. It never closes. It is always open for use. Students can use any computer to access iTunes, in fact all you need is just an internet connection. Students could even transfer the material from the classroom right on to their iPod or their iPhone. It is so convenient that you could even listen to a lecture while taking a walk. Schools could open all or a part of their content to the public. It would allow alumni, parents, and anyone else who wanted to view the lessons. I believe that in the next 10 years this is going to be a normal way for instructors to give lessons.
