iTunes U
iTunes U is a FREE place to build, deliver, create and share relevant curriculum to students. Once you’ve created your courses, students use the free app to download the course where audio, video, messages, assignments, presentations, pdfs and more are pushed down to their iPad. It is an easy and fast way to distribute course information to the iPads and a tool that aids in creating a student centered classroom. Join Ann Feldmann for this informative session about iTunes U!
