The Ipod Touch is a technological innovation that has been highly diffused. Many of our students currently have one or something similar. This tool does much of what a phone could do, but actually have a verbal conversation. Many of its apps can be adapted to fit in class instruction. It has access to the internet for collaboration and communication. It also has email or access to sites that allow interaction like Facebook and LinkedIn, and has apps like Twittelator Pro and Loopt for sharing videos and discovering places friends have been. Gps and travel apps can have a major impact in a lesson for a social studies class as would access to fitness and shopping sites in a math class. The Ipod could have a major impact on a classroom, it just needs to have that advantage discovered.
