Back when I was teaching, I always tried to keep my students interested in their lessons. I found that music and even podcasts were a great way to keep student interest high while improving their listening skills. In a typical school doing this meant dragging along a big boombox with tapes. It was hardly the best way to use audio in a lesson.
I did something very different. I used my iPod mini player hooked up to a set of computer speakers. It was so easy to take it to class and made the whole setup quick and easy. An mp3player such as the iPod really is an excellent tool in a teacher’s arsenal.
Since no one has too much money to spend, it’s a good idea to look for MP3 players and more on Abt Electronics. They’ve got great deals on a lot of different electronic products including Mp3 players, digital cameras and computers. They’ve got a good selection but the drawing point for me is that fact that they’ve been in business since 1936. That’s means they’re going to be there for years to come. I like that kind of stability.
