We came across an interesting article on wired.com regarding Abilene Christian University‘s iPhone pilot program.

Here’s our favorite excerpt from the article:

Most importantly, by allowing the students to participate in polls anonymously with the iPhone, it relieves them of any social pressure to appear intelligent in front of their peers. If they answer wrong, nobody will know who it was, ridding students of humiliation. And if students don’t understand a lesson, they can ask the teacher to repeat it by simply tapping a button on the iPhone.

What do you think?
