Virtual classrooms

With the new portable projector that can be attached to the iPhone 4 you can create a virtual classroom anywhere you can find a wall. This will enable teachers to bring the classrooms to students in rural areas and help the students learn the material much faster and or better.  With the use of visual aids we know this stimulates the mind better and allows for the person to learn much more accurately and quickly.  Imagine a teacher trying to teach how a whale swims on a chalk board? Now imagine the teacher showing a quick tutorial video on the iPhone.  The students could learn much more quickly with the video rather than the chalk. The phone is portable as well as the projector so this could travel around with them as well.  This is another case where we are bringing 1st world technology into a third world country where it is being used and implemented on site and is efficient.  A portable classroom that you already carry in your pocket.
