I thought this article on MP3 Homework was fabulous. To think about how we as educators can bring one of our students daily technologies (i.e. an Ipod or MP3 player) into the classroom is a great idea. Students will be able to use a media they are comfortable with and connect it to what they are learning.
As a future World Language Teacher, this would be an excellent way to encourage students to learn the language and culture throughout their everyday lives.
I can see how useful this tool could be for students with special needs, as well. Whether a student has a learning disability, behavioral disorder, or Visual or Hearing Impairment, an MP3 player could help with directions, reading stories or books, or even focusing on the task at hand.
