This is something that I've been interested in and have been talking about for some time... thank god it is finally an option. Perhaps there are problems with it, but it is moving in the right direction. Thanks to Aaron Chan who was my student in ECE912 a couple of years ago for pointing this out to me

A propos technology and education - there was an interesting article in Toronto Star, last Wednesday Sep 28. It's called "Clicking with students" and it's about this new method of teaching university students using a TV remote-like keypad. Another controversial idea to think about.
