Welcome to the iPod Touch Classroom Wiki!

 

     This wiki has been created as a collaborative space for educators using the iPod Touch in the classroom.  There has been a great deal of demand for a space such as this so that schools and teachers who are using the iPod Touch  to share what they're doing.  This wiki is (and should be) a work in progress as we explore best practices and ideas for implementation of the iPod Touch in the classroom.

 

If you are using the iPod Touch in your classroom, school, or district, please consider joining this wiki and share what you're learning!

What We Need

 

If you're an educator, then I know you're incredibly busy.  That's the beauty of a wiki.  Everyone can contribute bits and pieces here and there.  Here's a list of sections that I feel we need to expand/develop:

 

If you can contribute your knowledge/experience to those areas, it would be greatly appreciated.  Also, with "writer" level access you can make edits to existing contributions.  If it's early, and my coffee hasn't kicked in, there may be all sorts of spelling and grammar issues.  Edit freely!

Tips
