I loved this article. I agree, techonology is moving so fast that just keeping up with daily homework, chores and schedules boggles our brains. Looking forward to graduating during my junior year, I would have loved some of the latest and greatest techonolgy! I adore my blackberry. However figuring out the new ipods is like a contraption! I think the school should have a course in how to utilize technology, just as it has computer lab. We are constantly on the go, and often have thoughts we can intstantly research, havning a blackberry or an ipod. I love listening to music also when I study and ipod gives me that oppurtunity without bothering anyone in the library. I will figure out my text messaging next like my easy breezy blackberry, however I think ipod has beat everyone with all of its multi simplistic gadgetry!
I believe grammar school children may be way to young to be trusted with internet, however you see them all of the time with their little ipods listening to music. The apps are a touch of your finger tip and within 1 second you are where you need to be on the internet. When children in the 1970's attended grammar school they were taught Math using their calculators. I believe as the class of 2010 embarks upon their last year at UNI and a new page turns in their lives, they should at the very least have the oppurtunity to learn all about " technical gadgetry" available today to the general student. Many students in college have their own lap tops with Wi Fi. Therefore I love this article as it shows me the editor is looking at what others may have to offer her for her future as a college student, while maintaining finishing up at Uni. Way to go!
You even have the staff interested. You will soar to high places learning everything their is from people you may admire. That is an old technique taught even at Wharton School of Busness and many other colleges. Look, at what others do to make them succesful, then approach them and they are happy to share. Have you ever noticed that when one furniture store or pharmacy opens up on one corner in a city, the competitors place a store directly accross the street? Why? Because just as you listened to a advisor. They too find if it is good for making one company prosper it is a good location to make another one also, not even worrying about loosing sales. I believe you have hit the nail on the head with this idea and UNI ought to love it, as only good can come from teaching the proper principles behind the designers of Ipod.
An ipod for every student
