Beyond iTunesThe list of courses on iTunes U grows every day as do the number of providers, but that is but one of the resources now freely available to the would be cyber student.
YouTube YouTube which started off as nothing more than an interesting social experiment, has gone on to become the phenomena of the last decade. Each day in excess of 3 billion people stop by to view something, statistically (if not actually) this means that 1 person in every 2 on the planet acessess YouTube every day. Just for fun? Whilst the vast majority of people access entertainment on YouTube, this is far from its only content. Open YouTube and type in the words flight training or educational and you will be amazed at what more YouTube has to offer. |
Beyond YouTubeJust as iTunes can be matched video for video on YouTube so YouTube has it limitations (although it must be admitted these are very few and getting less and less each day. Other companies, other sites offer limited quantities of video training in more specialized areas. For example:
For an almost unlimited list of videos on all things technological For a mixture of 'entertainment' and educational videos and to see where TV is headed in the next decade Or for more traditional 'chalk and talk' educational training So whatever you decide to do with your time, don't limit your web access to reading the news or booking a flight, when you could take a course in iJournalism or learn to be a flight engineer, all without leaving your own home. |
