Students loading lectures on iPods - Associated Press
Some Iowa university students this year have been asked to turn off the Black Eyed Peas on their iPods and tune into a talk about the art of making a database. This fall, professors across the state began to experiment with putting audio and visual files of their classes online. Now, during the spring semester, more are allowing students to watch or listen to course content on computers and, if they wish, download it onto their MP3 players or cell phones, following a national trend that emerged in 2004. This gives students flexibility to watch or listen to lectures at their leisure and allows distance education students to forgo scheduled viewings of classes at Iowa Communications Network rooms, professors said.
