ITUNES U

iTunes U sounds like a great tool to help all teachers and students no matter what level. Students could use it to study or even as a source of research. Also, if a student were to use it as a study tool it would give that student a break from the same old type of learning. Students would have as many different perspectives as they could find. They could hear a lecture one day from their normal classroom teacher, then they could go home and futher their learning by hearing or watching the material in a different perspective.

Obviously students benift from iTunes U, but how could a teacher take this and run with it? Teachers should encourage their students took look up other teachers lectures. Teachers should also not get offended if a student considers another teacher or professor's lecture to be more entertaining or accurate. In fact, this situation could be the source of some great debate topics.
