Abstract	iPod and iTunes are gaining popularity amongst educators as a tool and platform to access and deliver complementary educational learning materials. The research question focuses on whether students access and use iTunes resources to enhance their content knowledge without teacher's assistance. The participants of the research consist of forty-nine engineering students at a Singapore university who agreed to participate in the research. They required completing a one-off survey at the beginning of the term. The findings of the research indicate that while these students were familiar with YouTube, they were less familiar with iTunes. It can be concluded that while students use online video streaming services for personal viewing, very few take the initiative to use these services to enhance their content knowledge. (As Provided).
