According to Duke News, there were 42 courses that required an iPod in the year 2006. I am sure by now, many additional courses have been added to the Duke Digital Initiative (DDI). There is so much today that deals with technology that I agree it should be used more in our classes. Someone in America cannot go throughout one day without the use of some sort of technology. Every single job requires some knowledge dealing with technology, so everyone should definitely be more informed about it.
In doing more research on iPods being used in classes for instruction, I stumbled across a website dealing with iPod use at Edith Cowan University, Using iPods in Learning & Teaching. They listed a number of "ways for educators to use iPods in Teaching and Learning." Here are a few: Recording Economic Lectures, Reviewing with iPods, Text and audio, Storage of information, Developing new engineering software, Dictating lesson plans and research notes, and the list goes on! I like the way you incorporate it in our class even though it was just for a presentation.
