The iPhone, it is the first cellphone created by Apple Inc. It includes many new features such as multi touch technology. If you still in the last millennium and you have no idea what I am talking about (fool), please go here (to the best site in the world): www.apple.com/iphone/ .
As you well know, our school is filled with iPhones. I more than 25% of all phones are iPhones. Which is really great (since we are a MAC school). But do the teachers care? They don’t (We know a certain French teacher has one). But what if the iPhone, could be used squeeze someones hand for this part as an educational tool.
This may hurt, but due to its iPod and web capabilities the iPhone could be a student’s perfect tool. Teachors can upload lessons/seminars somewhere (A Miss Lindsay wiki perhaps) as an audiobook and students will get it and have it with them. Podcasts also work. And you can get whole textbooks woth excellent viewing capabilities. And some of that stuff is capable with iPods. So what is so good about this?
- Everyone has iPsomething
- Students take these things with them wherever they go, so they do not need to carry suitcases of books.
And due to my nerdiness I must admit, use my 5G (Please buy me a new one) iPod for this very purpose.
And on that note. Please do buy me an iPhone.
BUY ME AN iPHONE. I love you Steve
