Zune Thoughts: Learn With a Zune

“Two classes have been selected nationwide to test the new MS Zune. One of them is Eric Langhorst’s class. So if you see his students listening to music, they are probably hard at study. Eric Langhorst is a social studies teacher in the South Valley Junior High School. His students are testing the new MS Zune, which allows easy transfer of video, audio, pictures and music, wirelessly.”

This is a pretty nice idea. Obviously there’s no need to confine new ways to teach to just our favorite digital media player and if this can be used any way to improve the education of kids, then I’m all for it! I love to see innovation in the classroom and it’s nice to see the Zune can be a part of that innovation. Hopefully they won’t decide it’s a bad idea after the Zune has games.

Of course, if these kids are using Zunes already, I’m not sure how much smarter they can get since clearly they’re pretty gifted! Head over to “Wired! Zune” for the whole article.
