Podcast Reflection #8: Learning in Hand: Project Based Learning

This podcast talked about how great handheld devices are for students in the classroom.  The speaker was able to make an entire project on an ipod touch.  This is really great because students used to have to use multiple resources to make a project.  Technology is a great resource to implement in the classroom.  There are so many different ways students can use handhelds in the classroom.  They can research, blog, record, gather data, type papers, and do many more projects on a handheld.  I think it is so great that one thing can be used for so many reasons.  Not only are students getting a lot of resources in one, but schools are paying for less resources (which is GREAT).  I enjoyed this podcast because it was useful.  I know I am going to have to use handhelds in my classroom and there are so many things that I did not know they could do.  Great podcast, and all of his podcast are about integrating technology in the classroom.
