What are the advantages to the student?
Some professors have placed academic content onto the iTunes U site. These may be video files, lectures, Powerpoint presentations, audio presentations, or similar material. Typically, it is “multimedia content.” By doing this, the student has the opportunity to look at this material wherever and whenever they wish. They can download the material to their computer and look at it there, and/or they can copy it to their iPod mobile device and take it with them as they themselves become mobile. Having content available in this way allows the student to have access to important course material at all times.
