One Billion downloads from iTunes U - Are teachers using it?

One Billion downloads from iTunes U - Are teachers using it? | iGeneration - 21st Century Education (Pedagogy & Digital Innovation) | Scoop.it
Apple doesn't really talk much about iTunes U, its educational content service powered by iTunes on iOS devices. But that doesn't mean it's not a success.
Principal dd's curator insight, March 1, 2013 11:04 AM

What's 'next' in our fast paced world ... minutes later becomes 'what's now' ... like most technology-connected innovations in education, it takes one person to 'champion' an innovation and run with it. But in the past, that more often than not happened in isolation. Teaching in the 90's was a pretty isolating profession ... teaching today is very different. One 'runner' has the potential to connect with 100's if not 1000's of like-minded colleagues ... amazing collaboration opportunities.

 

iTunes U is an amazing resource but requires a school-based 'champion' to take it on. Once it gains traction, staff and students will be 'running' together.

 

Ideas, a quick course and support for getting started with iTunes U were shared on educdemic.com in Dec. 2012:
