lilbean05 Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 I got an Ipod for my birthday (yippie!) and in exploring the world of ipods, I found that itunes has an educational section in their store. Have you all found anything good for early elementary (first grade ish?) or anything worthwhile, for that matter? How about any podcasts (my first time listening to them, yay!) on homeschooling or education? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Osaubi Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 I have not ventured into the University very much. My first impression was that it was mostly for older kids and adults. I did find NPR science friday podcasts. My ds7 just listened to one where they talked about the cheese making process. I have others loaded but we haven't listened to them yet. The Peace Hill Press store now contains MP3's of their lectures, and SOTW books. You can download them into itunes and sync them to your Ipod. I just did it with The Joy of Classical Education and If I Could do it Over Again. HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K&Rs Mom Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 There's a free video podcast called "Dragonfly TV" that's made by PBS and has a variety of science topics, about 8-10 minutes each. You can also watch them on your computer screen through iTunes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
