Getting Started with iPod touch: 17 A guide for using iPod touch and iTunes for teaching and learning Browsing the Internet with Safari With Safari, if the iPod touch is connected to a Wi-Fi network, you and your students can browse websites and search for information on the Internet, including Google searches. With iPod touch, students can do research both in and outside of the classroom and can have up to eight webpages open at a time. Files in PDF format can be downloaded and viewed on iPod touch as well.

Browsing the Internet with Safari
With Safari, if the iPod touch is connected to a Wi-Fi network, you and your students
can browse websites and search for information on the Internet, including Google
searches. With iPod touch, students can do research both in and outside of the
classroom and can have up to eight webpages open at a time. Files in PDF format can
be downloaded and viewed on iPod touch as well.
You can also add bookmarks and sync them to iPod touch from a computer, particularly
helpful if you want to provide students with a group of websites to use for research.
Websites can be viewed in either portrait or landscape orientation—you just rotate
iPod touch to change the orientation. It’s easy to scroll around webpages or to zoom
in and out on a page. Just double-tap or pinch to zoom in and out. Safari automatically
fits the webpage column to the iPod touch screen for easy reading.
