The educational use of iPod touches
through school-wide implementation at
Culbreth Middle School has served as a
catalyst for collaboration toward equity between students, educators
and other community members.
The iPod touch provides instant access
to the internet and its storehouse of information,
and forces educators to consider which resources are
appropriate, engaging & educational
when planning and carrying out lessons.
We’re witnessing a new paradigm for classroom
organization, collaboration & motivation
shaped specifically for 21st century learners.
