week 12

This weeks blog assignment really showed me how committed that apple is to making iTunes U common place in the classroom. There is an immense amount of media files available at no charge. The videos are of very high quality similar to those shown on "The Discovery Channel". I think they can and will be very useful in the classroom.
I watched the video entitled, "A Night in a Coral Reef". It was very colorful and exciting to me. I really enjoyed watching the reef change drastically from day to night. The different creatures who inhabit the reef change from day to night also which I found very interesting. This video was very well filmed and narrated I really don't know where a teacher can find a better source for classroom instructional videos.
When I become a teacher I will definitely use these videos in my classroom. It is wonderful to have free resources like this. I sincerely think that Apple is headed in the right direction with this resource. Keep up the good work Apple.
