project live educators training in the use of video The use of iPods in the classroom has come a long way. A few years ago if you asked a teacher to use a technical device, other than a computer while teaching, they would probably tell you you were crazy. This new innovation is changing the way we learn and interact with students and teachers forever. An interesting take on how iPods and other technological advances are being made by educators can be seen on Project LIVE. Project LIVE, or Learning through Instructional Video in Education, is getting everyone in on the act. They are using videos, blogs, iPods, e-mail, and a host of other advancements to instruct, communicate, and learn. What they are doing is making sure everyone,students, parents, and teachers,have access to this project has a way of learning new things through different technological means.
Duke University seems to have been at the forefront of handing over iPods to students for educational purposes.
