Monterey Institute of International Studies students may soon be taking their professors with them to the library - and to the gym, on the bus and even on road-trips - in downloaded lectures they can listen to on portable music players.Since the introduction of digital music players like Apple's iPod five years ago, the devices have gone from classroom nuisance to homework resource by providing lectures on the go. Advances in portable computing have allowed students to put an entire year's worth of lectures in their blue jeans pocket.
Say goodbye to heavy backpacks.
