Attention educators, teachers, and curriculum directors out there - have you checked out Ohio on iTunes U yet? If not, you really should!
CET features several funded multimedia projects on Ohio on iTunes U, including Vertices: Geometry Meets Art, Fitness Fanatic, and Joel’s Library Jam.
So, you might be asking, what is Ohio on iTunes U? Here is a brief description at http://www.apple.com/education/mobile-learning/:
“iTunes U, part of the iTunes Store, is possibly the world’s greatest collection of free educational media available to students, teachers, and lifelong learners. With over 200,000 educational audio and video files available, iTunes U* has quickly become the engine for the mobile learning movement. It puts the power of the iTunes Store in the hands of qualifying universities so they can distribute their educational media to their students or to the world.”

Also, take a moment to peruse the other offerings from Ohio on iTunes U, including ThinkTV Educational Services, Cincinnati Public Radio, and WOUB – Ohio University, just to name a few other Ohio organizations with content there. There is such a wide array of teaching tools, instructional media, and supplemental education material there that you will likely find just about any topic you are searching for.
You don’t even need to have an iPod or an iPhone to use iTunes and take advantage of these offerings – you can simply download the iTunes software for free to your desktop, visit the iTunes store, and find iTunes U at the very bottom of the page. Once you are in iTunes U, choose "Ohio" at the right and start checking out all the offerings. The video will play using iTunes software, which makes this very easy to use!
