See handout with matrix of course activities and academic goals.
What did courses do with iPods?
Portable access to course materials
Recording Lectures, discussions,
writing workshops Field notes and interviews Student performance
(spoken, sung) for review, practice, or assessment
Hands-on lab activities Hard drive for multimedia files “Podcasting” / audio blogging
Study new technologies Provide richer course content
via digital media Promote interactive, project-
based, collaborative learning Increase student engagement Foster flexible & efficient
course delivery mechanisms Support writing and research
in undergraduate curriculum
Respond to individual needs and learning preferences

Computational Methods in Engineering
Students examine a graph generated by attaching an iPod to the computer and running a program to measure the audio from a song on the iPod.

Radio Theater of the Mind
Students listen on their iPods to old time radio shows recorded in the 1920’s …
… then do their own productions of the shows and podcast them on The mp3ater Project Web site.

Intermediate Spanish
Students complete oral comprehension exercises at their own pace using iPods to record their speech.
Professor Lisa Merschel recorded "audio flash cards" for students to listen to on their iPods to review pronunciation.
Students listen to a dramatic reading of the Don Juan Tenorio by Duke Spanish instructors

The Duke iPod Project
What have we learned so far?
![Page 19: The Duke iPod First-Year Experience Ginny Cake Senior Director, Office of Information Technology Lynne O’Brien Director of Academic Technology and Instructional](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d965503460f94a7fba1/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Evaluation focusWas iPod a stimulus to innovation in
teaching and learning?Which uses were most fruitful and should
shape planning for academic technology? How feasible was it to use iPods, and
should the experiment be continued, dropped or changed?

Findings: Yes, they used them!
iPod use in15 fall, 33 spring courses*75% of first-year students said they used
iPod in a class or for independent support of their studies*
Recording = most widely used feature for academic purposes, although all features used in at least some ways*
Of course they listened to music!
* Includes formally designated iPod courses plus independent use

The Duke Digital Initiative
Transitioning from iPods to DDI
![Page 27: The Duke iPod First-Year Experience Ginny Cake Senior Director, Office of Information Technology Lynne O’Brien Director of Academic Technology and Instructional](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d965503460f94a7fba1/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
DDI – Overarching Goals
Innovative and effective teachingCurriculum enhancementInfrastructure developmentKnowledge sharing
Based on what we learned, Duke is now focusing this on extending parts of the experiments which seemed most promising. The Duke Digital Initiative emerged with the following goals:
