DOES TECHNOLOGY HURT OR AID EDUCATION?

I have always believed that dance education and dance as an interdiscplinary subject is undervalued and neglected in our society.  Recent readings not only support this belief further, but lay a case for the importance of movement and dance in education. 

USING IPOD APPS IN CLASS

I have been mourning the loss of my classic ipod for several months now.  I was in denial for a while and even went to the extreme lengths of watching and performing youtube 'surgery' to try and fix it.  But alas, it had flatlined!!  So a few weeks ago I bought an ipod touch to use in dance and movement classes.  I have been excited about the potential use of apps in class, and today I finally got the opportunity to use one very successfully in class.
