ECIS iTunes U FAQs

Q: What is iTunes U?

A: ECIS iTunes U is the result of a collaborative effort between participating ECIS schools. Its site houses a growing collection of K-12 courses and mini-lesson style podcasts covering a broad range of subjects and topics taught in international schools.

Q: Can anyone access these materials for instructional purposes?

A: Yes, they are available to the public. In fact, statistics show that the courses and podcasts are being accessed all around the world, not just by students in participating schools.

Q: How do I access the site?

A: From the iTunes application on your local machine, click on “iTunes Store” and enter “ECIS” into the search bar.

Q: Can anyone publish with ECIS iTunes U?

A: No, the privilege is reserved for ECIS member schools, or members of sister organizations with an agreement with ECIS.

Q: Will my school/organization receive credit for its work?

A: Absolutely. All pertinent logos will appear on the icons for courses and podcasts. All participating organizations’ logos will also appear with the ECIS logo on ECIS iTunes U publications, such as the ECIS iTunes U Info Pack.

Q: If I am interested but have no experience podcasting, is there support available?

A: Yes, if there is no one in your school available to help you get started, please contact Leah Treesh (leah.treesh@1to1lt.com) for support.
