Hi Stacey,
It's great to see you are doing so well and enjoying the iPod touch and Studywiz mobile. I will make sure I promote your work at HHL 09 next week in London and bring home more ideas and contacts to share with you. I would love to know how you are finding the Attendance App. Keep in touch, I look forward to meeting with you one day.

Blogging, visual representation, recording podcast and radio plays, shorter written assigments, catching students up on presentations and media they miss when they are away, text to speech apps are great for weaker readers. I feel like I am just scratching the surface, if you want more specific examples for your program let me know!

Hi Stacey,
I have been using the touch for nearly 2 years. This year with 6&7 years olds. My blog is at
http://web.me.com/jenashby/iPodTouch_Project/Blog/Blog.html

Have a read and get some ideas. When you buy ipods you are buying not one tool but hundreds of tools. It's the swiss army knife for learning.

And......the kids love them and are so turned on to learning,

I've been selected by Apple Canada for a program that will give me a month's time with a pile of Macbooks and iPod Touches. I'm thinking it would be interesting to have the touches as an easy reference tool, especially for spelling and thesaurus tools. I also wonder how it would impact on small group discussion, to enable students to quickly look up and dig into any issue that arose, instead of glossing over it.

We are in a Pepsi contest right now to win 3 iTouch labs for our school and we need a lot of support. We are currently ranked 9th and need to be in the top ten to win, but we need to stay there until June 1st. Will you please have your faculty, students, family and friends vote for us each day until June 1st. Some people don't understand the importance of this project, but I thought that you guys would! Please spread the word and help us!
