Many college campuses have begun posting their course lectures as a free download in iTunes U. Stanford, MIT, Berkeley, Oxford and many others post course materials to iTunes U. These lectures range from Psych 101 to guest speakers such as Thomas Friedman on how the world has become Hot, Flat, and Crowded, the title of his current book. You can also find on iTunes U an audio download of President Obama's Inauguration address. Again, it's free. Colleges and Universities have acknowledged that technology has affected learning styles and so they have decided to adapt to changing student needs. iTunes U is one way they have chosen to meet the 21st century needs of their clientele. If you're curious, launch iTunes, go to the Music Store, and search for iTunes U. So go ahead. Take another whack at higher education!
