The Birth of the iPod

• More than any other single product from Apple,
  the iPod has changed the company and the world.
• Before its introduction, MP3 players were the
  realm of small companies with limited budgets.
• After the iPod, the entire industry has evolved
  and grown to the point where the largest computer
  companies in the world have major interests in
  the digital music industry.

The First iPod

• Unlike most other players, the iPod does not use
  controls that were better suited to the Sony
  Walkman in 1979 than a MP3 player with a capacity
  of thousands of songs.

• Instead of using skip buttons, you can spin a
  wheel on the front of the device to scroll
  through a list of songs to find the song the you
  desire.

• The same wheel is used to control the menus of
  the system.

How could an iPod benefit me?
24
You can even use your iPod for educational
benefits.

• As part of a university initiative to encourage
  creative uses of technology, Duke distributed
  20GB Apple iPod devices to over 1600 entering
  first-year students in August 2004.
• There are many academic uses for the iPod as an
  educational tool
• Students had portable access to course content
  such as lectures, songs, course management tools,
  and podcasts.
• They had the ability to record lectures, class
  discussions, and seminars.
• File storage and transfer, especially for large
  multimedia files, became easier.
• As a result of this experiment, there were many
  benefits that were found
• Enhanced support for individual wants and needs
• Increased student participation and interest in
  class discussions
• After realizing the benefits of using an iPod in
  an educational community the one downfall is lack
  of knowledge and awareness of the iPod itself.

Professor in Your Pocket?

• Could you use a professor in your pocket? iPods
  are great for reviewing and catching up on
  lectures and seminars.
• In the fall of 2005, nearly a dozen colleges
  implemented course casting, or recorded lectures
  that can be downloaded and watched on iPods. Is
  yours next?
• Students at Purdue University have downloaded
  40,000 lectures since the start of the semester.
