iTunes University

iTunes University is an online educational media source and is available to everyone. There are over 100,000 educational video and audio files available. It is open to other universities, giving them the opportunity to put up their educational media files. iTunes University is great for students with learning disabilities as well as students with different learning styles. iTunes University also gives the other universities the choice as to whether or not they want to make their educational media open to the public or have it private. If the university decides they would like to only allow access to their students than they are given their own password-protected site. The password-protected site enables that university the control to manage their content as well as the downloadable resources. iTunes University also makes available some of the most creative K-12 state projects in the country. This is a great opportunity for getting ideas that you (as the teacher) can incorporate in your classroom. Many universities that use iTunes have an internal site as well as an external site. The internal site usually has more resources and is only for the students that attend that university. The external site is for everyone and while it does have resources, they are not as in-depth as the resources you would find at the internal site. All in all, iTunes University is a great way to incorporate the many different learning styles for students as well as teachers.
