At USF, iPods are portable classrooms

Technology is revolutionizing education - computers in the classroom, distance learning collapsing geographical boundaries, teachers sharing information and resources - and the launch of the University of South Florida’s iTunesU last Monday rests USF on the cutting edge.

ITunesU is a collaboration between Apple and schools such as Stanford and UC Berkeley to use the technology of iTunes and podcasting to make educational content available to a broader audience, on the go. Anyone can access the content offered freely to the public at iTunes.usf.edu and students who are registered for an online class can access their class with their password.
