Introduction
• Many studies have been done on iPods in the classroom suggesting:– They are an effective tool for learning– Help to increase engagement for learning
We want to implement diverse experiences with this tool while engaging learners in the
instruction.
The Problem – There is not much research showing the effects of iPod use in the classroom

Research Questions
1. How do administrative policies and/or attitudes promote or hinder the use of iPods in the classroom?
2. Do iPods enhance learning?

Purpose of this Study
• To learn more about student experience within the parameters of using iPods as learning devices.
• We need to find out how iPods can be used for instruction and promote engagement through higher leveled thinking skills.

Why does this matter?
• If we learn about the results of using iPods in the classroom it could result in:– Help to provide better improved
instruction to promote higher level thinking strategies
– Improve engagement in learning for students throughout various subject matter
– Higher standardized test scores– Provide quality instruction

Tips for Integration
• Allow for self-instruction• Work through problem based theory• Give options for learning• Allow for collaboration among
classmates• Interact among students • Deliver new ideas through means of
gathering new information and techniques
