As more and more people learn how to use the Internet to its maximum potential, the world becomes an increasingly exciting place to be. Mobile devices and laptops allow us to perform any number of tasks that were unthinkable a few years ago, like ordering groceries from a handset, or studying English literature through an online school's virtual campus.

Students are one population who have really leveraged the web and all of its capabilities. Today, an individual's access to information is more far-reaching than ever before. But the Internet can be more than a research tool for students, it can also help with administrative tasks like course registration. BlackBoard Learn is a free iPhone app that allows students to access their university accounts from their mobile devices, according to CNET News.

The iPhone can also be used to review for exams, says the news source. Cram is another app for the handheld and it allows students to create multiple choice quizzes so they can study on the subway or in the bus without carrying around a heavy textbook.

French 101 makes the iPhone bilingual. This app has a flashcard feature that is similar to Cram's quizzes. It's advertised on Apple's website and offers students the possibility to work on their French vocabulary while on the go.

Whether pursuing a degree at a traditional university or through an online school, students who have an iPhone could benefit from the applications that are now available for this device.
