iTunes U Expands Educational Materials

Apple iTunes is expanding its educational section, iTunes U. iTunes users can now access a section called "Beyond Campus" with educational materials, which will include audio content from KQED, The Writer's Almanac, and more.
Previously, iTunes U only offered content from colleges and universities. Now you can download audio, printable transcripts, and teachers or professors can get suggestion points for classroom discussion.
American Public Media will also be offering content on iTunes U. They have been working on making its radio programming available for free for educational purposes. Sarah Lutman, the Senior Vice President of Content and Media at American Public Media, said that "iTunes U will be a powerful gateway to the dynamic supplemental web content that accompanies our signature programs".
All of these exciting offerings from Apple is making the iPod community a very well-rounded audience. From downloadable tv shows, movies, music, books, and now educational materials, there is nothing you can't get your hands on from iTunes.
