Apple iPod Learning Lab
Mobile access to learning
Feed students’ appetites for learning
Innovative educators are using iPod as a powerful educational tool in the effort to meet students’ academic needs and to help them achieve 21st century literacy. The iPod allows for access to speeches, audio books, or educator-created content and its portability means that students can learn anywhere, anytime. Create foreign language lessons, math rhymes, digital science experiments, or custom quizzes for learning on-the-go.
Everybody listens. Everybody learns.
The Apple iPod Learning Lab provides an easy and reliable way to bring the power of iPod to the classroom. Ready to roll anywhere on campus, the Apple iPod Learning Lab makes it easy to manage multiple iPod players at once. Each Apple iPod Learning Lab comes with (20) 80GB iPod classic players and a fully assembled Bretford mobile cart, exclusively built for Apple to meet the specific needs of schools. The iPod cart includes individual storage bays for 40 iPod players. The cart can charge up to 40 iPod or iPod nano players at once and sync 20 at a time to the same computer, saving valuable classroom time for teaching. The cart also includes room for storage of four notebook computers and a variety of iPod accessories.
Essential guide for getting started
Provided with every learning lab is a new “Getting Started” guide, designed to help teachers begin integrating iPod players included in the Apple iPod Learning Lab in their classrooms. Written by experienced educators, the guide includes important information about setting up and using iPod players, finding and creating content, management tips for student accounts, lessons plans, and more.
Maximize your investment with Apple Professional Development
