IPods in School – Turning Toys Into Tools – Teaching With Technology
Students who struggle with reading will struggle in most subject areas in school and in many avenues of life. Using audio books and iPods to improve reading fluency with all readers promotes success for students in most areas of life. Intervening early improves student achievement along with self-esteem. There are at least four ways iPods in school increases student achievement and motivation; independent reading, shared or small-group reading, whole class listening, and lending out the audio books for home use.
