A few weeks ago, Apple launched an updated version of iTunes U (the ‘U’ stands for University). Hundreds of schools and organizations have since connected to the platform, among which Oxford University, Stanford University and National Geographic. iTunes U is part of the iTunes Store, just like iBooks, where all kinds of study materials – text, video, audio – are publicly accessible. You can get a subscription on a certain topic or course, an option to have each new article automatically downloaded.
Today, iTunes U already contains an enormous wealth of high quality information and it’s spreading around the world quickly. Translation of study materials can be extremely relevant for teachers, professors and others who are looking to enrich their curriculum. Textcase is eager to support this trend by converting iTunes U into every thinkable language.
