Bring your ipod to humanities!!!!

March 31st, 2008

But don’t listen to it!!!! Yes you heard right. Let’s take our ipods to the next level and start using them as informational tools as well. As we read through the Outsiders there will be several documents you can look at on your ipod. Hopefully as you sit on the bus and listen to your favorite music you can also scroll through a fact sheet or character profiles in your ipods notes section…….it is endless what you can do!!!!

Download the following documents by clicking the link and saving it to your desktop as a text file:

Characters-The-Outsiders.txt

Glossary-The-Outsiders.txt

Motifs-The-Outsiders.txt

Key-facts-The-Outsiders.txt

Symbols.txt

Themes.txt

Now uploading to your ipod is really simple, and you only have to do this step once.

To do this, first you need to mount your iPod on the Desktop. Plug in your iPod and load up iTunes. Go to the iPod section and make sure “Enable Disk Use” is checked.Enable Disk Use

Matt's iPod

Now you can copy files to and from your iPod.

Then whenever you want to add more things it is as easy as dragging and dropping straight onto your ipod on the desktop. Try it with the files I have for you and next class I will show you how to change anything you have in word to a text file that the ipod can read……..Best of all……..if you don’t have an ipod….this just might convince your parents!!!!!!

But let’s get one thing straight……. don’t go home and say Mr Power says we need to buy an ipod!!!!!!

Downloading the text files then copy and paste into word and print it out if you want a hard copy can be just as good.

Thanks to MacOSXhints for the screenshots and easy explanation.

    sandy is PREGNANT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

    quote:

    “When Sandy went to Florida…it wasn’t Soda, Ponyboy. He told me he loved her, but I guess she didn’t love him like he thought she did, because it wasn’t him.”
    “You don’t have to draw me a picture,”I said.
    “He wanted to marry her anyway, but she just left.” Darry was looking at me with puzzled expression. “Why didn’t he tell you? I didn’t think he’d tell Steve or Two-Bit, buy I thought he told you everything.”

    see…….
