Let\u2019s consider two recent, related pieces in the University of Miami newspaper.<\/p>\n
The first announces the appearance, in selected classrooms, of a new technology called SYNCHRONEYES.<\/p>\n
Synchroneyes is the sort of thing universities all over the country are spending your tuition dollars on.<\/p>\n
Instead of doing something about disruptive in-class laptop use that costs nothing \u201d\u201d banning them \u201d\u201d many universities are starting an expensive war with them.<\/p>\n
Synchroneyes marks a major escalation in the classroom technology battle: The professor as spy-master.<\/p>\n
With Syncroneyes, the professor can \u201cview all the computer screens in the classroom and redirect the student\u2019s attention if they digress from the lecture topic.\u201d\u009d<\/p>\n
Elegantly put. Let\u2019s see this interaction in practice.<\/p>\n
