So Proud of my Alma Mater

Purdue University has developed a system that will soon integrate social tools such as Twitter and Facebook into the classroom. Taking a cue from many tech conferences, students will be able to post questions to a public forum visible to the professor and rest of the class. In addition, the system employs a Digg-style system which lets students vote up and down questions that they think is most important.

I'm incredibly proud of my former school for not just using this kind of technology, but for BUILDING it. 

Go Boilers!
