iPod touches being used in Minnesota schools (for learning…)
After recently writing about/contemplating technology and its use in schools, I happened upon this article about elementary schools using iPod touches and educational applications to teach students by Julio Ojeda-Zapata. This article was of even more interest to me as it includes interviews with students & teachers from my alma mater school district, West Saint Paul-Mendota Heights-Eagan. Hoody hoo!
The story does a great job of highlighting how these gadgets encourage learning and make it fun for students. Be sure to read it. At the very least, check out the great photo slideshow of students using their iPods in class.
