In this paper a proposal is made about a new approach to lectures. Traditional lessons are still mainly based on a single teacher, a group of students, sequential slides and activities based on one subject. Yet, the interdisplinary nature of some jobs (for instance when ICT are used to modernize traditional works) must be taken into account, so as to help students to develop an interdisciplinary attitude, face groupwork and be ready to handle with new market requirements. To this purpose, the app iTunes, running on an iPad2, is here considered from several viewpoints, starting from data analysis to web interfaces, as well as network aspects. In the proposed approach, several teachers from distinct areas first explain their subject in connection with iTunes and iPad, then proceed to a complete presentation of their courses.

Abstract
In this paper a proposal is made about a new approach to lectures. Traditional lessons are still mainly based on a single teacher, a group of students, sequential slides and activities based on one subject. Yet, the interdisplinary nature of some jobs (for instance when ICT are used to modernize traditional works) must be taken into account, so as to help students to develop an interdisciplinary attitude, face groupwork and be ready to handle with new market requirements. To this purpose, the app iTunes, running on an iPad2, is here considered from several viewpoints, starting from data analysis to web interfaces, as well as network aspects. In the proposed approach, several teachers from distinct areas first explain their subject in connection with iTunes and iPad, then proceed to a complete presentation of their courses.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
