School in the UK shows us Microsoft Surface in the classroom

Microsoft Surface and education are like peanut butter and jelly. Microsoft Surface is like that with a number of markets, but there's something about kids interacting with a computer in a very accessible way that seems right. Microsoft worked with Infusion and RM (who also worked with Lightbox Education) to create applications for schools. The video below is a video case study of what happened when they dropped it off for a day with teachers and students. You'll also see some of the Microsoft applications (puzzles) and VectorForm (Surface DJ) featured in the video below. You can also see more education concepts that we've covered in the past with nsquared. Both were at BETT with Microsoft Surface.

As a BONUS, here's an excellent video created by DPE UK which goes in depth about the development of the Finguistics application with RM and Infusion. This doesn't just relate to education, but more broadly to the development of Microsoft Surface applications as I've covered in the past (1)(2)(3).
