As a teacher having an iPod can be an extremely useful tool. The same is true for students. The ability to download and store information is always a plus. Its small size is nice for anyone on the go. Having your music and video files when you need to take a mental break is nice also. On a more serious note, setting up podcasts and linking up to your class from anywhere in the world is a definite advantage. Entire lesson could be saved and made available for download to your students for visual step by step instruction. Documents are able to be made more appealing and attention grabbing than printed documents could ever be, without the wasted ink and paper.
The list of positive uses for an iPod and iTunes University is at worst a very long one. Check out THIS SITE for more information and develop your own opinion. I have already made up my mind, and I am completely on board with the iTunes University's methods of education!
