A teacher calls his blog in an iPod world. Elementary schools have systems developed for how to incorporate iPods into basic education. The concept of using iPods as study tools is not new. Since the introduction of mp3 players, tools were being made to utilize them beyond their music potential. It's no different than the TI-83 calculator that could whimsically do twelve other applications, including the wonderful game of Tetris. The iPod allows students to do more than listen to music. As a media tool, it offers students the ability to have a computer in their pocket, benefiting from today's entertainment technology in new and interesting ways. For an online student, an Internet-ready iPod could allow going to class without the laptop; check your e-mails from the comfort of your handheld device.]]> http://blog.degreego.com/2009/07/15/ipod-as-an-educational-tool/feed/ 6 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/06/23/summer-events-for-college-and-community/ http://blog.degreego.com/2009/06/23/summer-events-for-college-and-community/#comments Tue, 23 Jun 2009 00:02:07 +0000 Kourtnie McKenzie http://blog.degreego.com/?p=89 During the summer, schools turn into ghost towns. Sidewalks once teeming with hundreds of students moving from class-to-class become so thin, you can count all the dried gumspots on the ground. Residue from chalk from student councils quickly fades into dust as June turns to July.]]> http://blog.degreego.com/2009/06/23/summer-events-for-college-and-community/feed/ 3 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/06/16/accreditation-why-its-important-and-how-its-done/ http://blog.degreego.com/2009/06/16/accreditation-why-its-important-and-how-its-done/#comments Tue, 16 Jun 2009 16:58:24 +0000 Kourtnie McKenzie http://blog.degreego.com/?p=79 Accreditation is the process in which a private school, whether they provide campus-based or distance learning, becomes recognized as a prestigious and reputable college. Colleges accredited by one of the Six Regional Accreditation Agencies provide education recognized by others within the accreditation network. This means transferable units if you decide to attend another school in the future, and more recognition from an employer that understands the accreditation process surrounding private postsecondary education.]]> http://blog.degreego.com/2009/06/16/accreditation-why-its-important-and-how-its-done/feed/ 4 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/05/05/ten-successful-college-degrees-in-todays-economy/ http://blog.degreego.com/2009/05/05/ten-successful-college-degrees-in-todays-economy/#comments Tue, 05 May 2009 18:35:41 +0000 Kourtnie McKenzie http://blog.degreego.com/?p=51 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/05/05/ten-successful-college-degrees-in-todays-economy/feed/ 1 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/05/04/college-choices-affected-by-economy/ http://blog.degreego.com/2009/05/04/college-choices-affected-by-economy/#comments Mon, 04 May 2009 19:06:34 +0000 Kourtnie McKenzie http://blog.degreego.com/?p=49 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/05/04/college-choices-affected-by-economy/feed/ 0 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/29/5-popular-college-degree-choices/ http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/29/5-popular-college-degree-choices/#comments Wed, 29 Apr 2009 21:28:31 +0000 Kourtnie McKenzie http://blog.degreego.com/?p=45 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/29/5-popular-college-degree-choices/feed/ 1 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/27/featured-school-everest-college/ http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/27/featured-school-everest-college/#comments Mon, 27 Apr 2009 21:17:32 +0000 Kourtnie McKenzie http://blog.degreego.com/?p=42 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/27/featured-school-everest-college/feed/ 0 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/20/degreego-is-on-twitter/ http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/20/degreego-is-on-twitter/#comments Mon, 20 Apr 2009 21:04:43 +0000 Kourtnie McKenzie http://blog.degreego.com/?p=37 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/20/degreego-is-on-twitter/feed/ 0 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/15/degreego-is-the-gateway-to-the-college-experience/ http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/15/degreego-is-the-gateway-to-the-college-experience/#comments Wed, 15 Apr 2009 17:05:15 +0000 Kourtnie McKenzie http://blog.degreego.com/?p=33 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/15/degreego-is-the-gateway-to-the-college-experience/feed/ 0 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/13/featured-school-saint-leo-university/ http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/13/featured-school-saint-leo-university/#comments Mon, 13 Apr 2009 19:05:46 +0000 Kourtnie McKenzie http://blog.degreego.com/?p=31 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/13/featured-school-saint-leo-university/feed/ 6 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/10/ten-myths-about-going-back-to-college/ http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/10/ten-myths-about-going-back-to-college/#comments Fri, 10 Apr 2009 21:02:30 +0000 Kourtnie McKenzie http://blog.degreego.com/?p=27 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/10/ten-myths-about-going-back-to-college/feed/ 0 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/08/american-sentinel-university-students-praise-school/ http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/08/american-sentinel-university-students-praise-school/#comments Wed, 08 Apr 2009 20:58:35 +0000 Kourtnie McKenzie http://blog.degreego.com/?p=13 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/08/american-sentinel-university-students-praise-school/feed/ 0 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/06/5-reasons-to-go-back-to-school-right-now/ http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/06/5-reasons-to-go-back-to-school-right-now/#comments Mon, 06 Apr 2009 23:35:13 +0000 Randall Hawkins http://blog.degreego.com/?p=8 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/06/5-reasons-to-go-back-to-school-right-now/feed/ 0 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/02/welcome-to-the-official-blog-for-degreegocom/ http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/02/welcome-to-the-official-blog-for-degreegocom/#comments Thu, 02 Apr 2009 21:05:28 +0000 Randall Hawkins http://blog.degreego.com/?p=3 http://blog.degreego.com/2009/04/02/welcome-to-the-official-blog-for-degreegocom/feed/ 0
