Reading about the use of technology in SLA, I found this interesting paper that describes how you can take advantage of the “Acquisition-Friendly” features of the iPod and includes a description of several different teaching strategies and how iPod can be used with each. ( clue: click on the title of the post to read the article)

Education and technology are two fields which evolve frequently. Ipods, mp3´s, and many other are becoming useful learning material. I do have an mp3 and found that through it I have practiced and improved my oral proficiency.
