Cathleen Richardson, Director of Technology at the Atlanta Girls' School, has an incredible student project combining the use of the iPod Touch with a Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math at AGS.   

From their website: "iSTEM is a program that will combine the use of iPod Touches, various software applications, and Cocoa Programming/Objective C to pique the interest of Atlanta Girls' School students in the STEM areas. The program will begin in eighth grade with a science curriculum infused with technology applications and will end in twelfth grade with AGS girls becoming Cocoa programmers. Eighth graders will be getting the chance to use the iPods beginning the week of February 16. Four eleventh grade girls will begin the week of February 23 working directly with Director of Technology, Cathleen Richardson, to be a beta test group for programming the devices. The curriculum for this project will be aligned with National Science, Math, Engineering and Technology Standards and guided by the Partnership for 21st Century Skills Framework."

Knowing what an amazing, innovative, and creative educator Cathleen is, I will be eager to watch this project unfold! Be sure to explore their site at this link or by clicking on the image in this post.

Learning in Hand is Tony Vincent's web presence for using handheld devices in education. Tony is well know and respected for his pioneering working in using podcasting in the elementary classroom when he worked in Omaha, Nebraska. You will certainly want to check out Radio WillowWeb, also pictured in this post. Radio WillowWeb is a collection of podcasts created by elementary school students from second through fifth grades.

On Learning in Hand you will find Tony's blog, and the following sections: Podcasts, PDAs, iPods, Netbooks, Mobile Web, as well as others. He provides educators with a great resource on mobile learning!

Susan Wells, principal at Grey Culbreth Middle School in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, has a vision for implementing the power of the affordable iPod Touch into every curriculum area of the school. The teachers and community are embracing this initiative whole-heartedly. And the students? Well, you can imagine! This link on their web page provides a number of podcasts about their vision and efforts to date. Notice their videos are hosted through Google as well as their Blogger blog--a completely free implementation!

I just found this site that might be of interest: IEAR.org. The group appears to place a significant emphasis on earlier years and on small Apple devices: the iPhone, iTouch (as they call it), and the iPod. Their site design is clever.   

Since I'm frequently asked by the elementary teachers about technology integration by subject area, this might be a good resource. They have an accompanying Ning and a Wiki. You can follow them on Twitter, and visit their Delicious. Check it out.
