Franziska Lys ([log in to unmask]) presented on this at CALICO in San
Francisco in March. (Here's the entry in the program: In Touch with the iPod
Touch; Franziska Lys
This presentation highlights an advanced German class in which students
regularly used an iPod Touch to develop vocabulary and oral communication skills
using the method of shared inquiry. Since the shared inquiry method is a group
process in which participants explore together the meaning of a literary work,
the iPod touch with its new features was an ideal tool to use shared inquiry for
film and video material. During the presentation, the following tasks will be
discussed, among others: learner-centered vocabulary development, building
factual knowledge through shared listening, using visual information to
encourage building opinions, and providing supporting evidence.)
I suggest you drop her a note. And she's in your neighborhood, too!

Hello all,
does anybody have experience with the use of itouch in classroom
instruction or for student projects outside the classroom?
We are looking for a small device that can connect to the internet and
perhaps record students' oral production. It should be a device that can
be easily set up by an instructor and passed out so that each student has
one. (for example, each student looks up the whether of a different city)
Do you have any experience with the type of instructional activities your
instructors use such devices for?
Thank you,
susanne
