Come listen to Guest Speaker Hillary Bennet wax rhapsodic about all things iPod. iPods are small electronic devices used to listen to, store a large amount of, and play hours and hours of music on a single battery charge (it’s that little thing you see people carrying in their hand or pocket with wires ending at plugs in their ears). iTunes is software that helps transfer and play music on iPods, iPhones, and computers. iTunes U (iTunes University) is the newest “mobile learning” section of the Apple iTunes Store where users search, download, and play course content from hundreds of colleges, universities, and educationally focused organizations, connected through iPods or iPhone from anywhere.

This is the meeting to attend if you want to know all about iPods (downloading music or study materials, using, buying, programming, playing, managing, etc.), and the latest things this e-world has to offer.

Hillary is eminently qualified to do this because she has been teaching about computers for over twenty years (fifteen of them at the Pacific Grove Adult Education Center). She has followed along as both Personal Computers and Macs have evolved, growing with them all the while and trying to find the balance between the “little house on the prairie” dream and the technology reality of the times. Hillary feels that using technological to enhance the quality of life, not detract from it, takes effort and commitment. She also thinks that constantly learning is fun and good for you and that computers and gadgets are yet another avenue to explore the world and learn more about ourselves and others.

Hillary is sure to bring music (and learning) to your ears! Questions in advance? Contact Hillary at bennetthillary@yahoo.com
