According to Apple (http://www.apple.com/education/itunesu_mobilelearning/itunesu.html), iTunes U is a new mobile way of learning. It "delivers easy, 24/7 access to educational content from hundreds of top colleges, universities, and educationally focused organizations across the country. And it’s accessible to anyone with a Mac or PC." It takes learning on the go to a whole new level.
Apple partnered up with Stanford University to test the success of the program. iTunes U audio/video lectures, podcasts, and vidcasts available to students. Having these options available could help students in and out of the classroom. If a student is absent and misses a lecture, an audio/video lecture could get them back up to speed. Students who learn at a slower pace or has to review things over and over before they get the point would benefit from the iTunes U program.
