University professor takes iPods to the classroom - Associated Press
As students stroll across the University of Connecticut campus wearing earphones plugged into their iPods, not everyone is listening to the latest rock music. Some are tuning in to Professor David B. Miller. The veteran educator, who once thought about becoming a disc jockey, is recording small group study sessions from his psychology classes and offering them as free podcasts, audio recordings that can be downloaded from the Internet and played on the Apple iPods or similar portable digital audio players. He is believed to be the first UConn faculty member to experiment with podcasting, a tool that is emerging on campuses as a means of conveying information to a technologically savvy generation of young people.
