- Subset of the apple store Also a programme which catches your multimedia files and arranges them for you Universities produce sound and video learning material and make them available thru itunes U. Granular OER – not many “full courses” although there are some. Integrity model, not essence or remix model
- Tour Free program for computers – Windows and Macs – you don’t need an apple handheld device to use iTunes
- Good search Would be better if we had copyright, apparently it’s coming
- Started as a pilot programme – Apple worked with several universities – Duke in autumn 2004 gave out iPods …. Then iTunes U was in 2005, officially unveiled in May 2007, came to the UK in 2008. Started mainly as a way of distributing recorded lectures(sound-only) to enrolled students. In the USA universities store their stuff on Apple servers. Here in the UK, only on our own servers. For us, then, the ownership is very clear. It’s our stuff.

- From the Open University, it looks like it. Open University is all distance. Pioneers in utilising broadcasting and various media in teaching. Open University was one of the first three in Europe to join iTunes U.(other 2 are oxford and Trinity College Dublin)
- Obama pledged $50 million in 2009 to the OER cause, and another $2 billion in January 2011 – for career and training programmes to be administered and overseen largely thru local colleges, and all associated material must be produced under Creative Commons 3.0 license
- A new method of giving individual items individual licenses in the metadata is apparently on its way
- Contributors – both individuals and the institution
- Youtube banned in China, Turkey, Bangladesh, Tunisia, Morocco – Iran flip-flops Star rating and comments but not many comments
- Good analytics from iTunes U – can see the increasing numbers of these accessed by mobile devices
- It’s all about the iPad now – completely dominating the tablet market – for now
