iPods in the Classroom

iPods became very popular while I was in high school.  They were only to be used during passing time and study halls.  iPods were especially banned from test time, because a student could have loaded the answers and such onto their iPod.  Louisa-Muscatine (I went to Muscatine schools) special education students are allowed to use their iPods to listen to a voice reading test questions to them.  This began as early as 2005, when I was a high school freshman!  I am proud that some districts are adopting technologies such as this.

I hope that iPods will be used more widely in our futures as teachers and students!
