iTunes U

Itunes U is a valuable tool to be used by anyone seeking knowledge in almost any subject. Students and Teachers alike could use this tool in the class room. Essentially, it is set up like much of the rest of iTunes. They look like pod casts and you can either subscribe to a specific university, teacher, or subject matter just like a pod cast or download a specific lecture or audio and/or video clip the pertains to what you are seeking information.

As a student you can find information needed for research and reference for projects and other assignments that require outside sources. As an educator you can use this in much the same way but in more of an instructional capacity. It enables teachers to show students world class university professors teaching up to date information that is being applied today and not something that has been in the curriculum for 20 years.
