In a similar vein to the library question, I've wondered if anyone is doing research looking at the Kindle or other e-readers as course tools. There are a number of software companies (like Blackboard) that offer online course management software. Anybody thinking about a place for Kindles and other readers as a platform for coursework? I've seen some reports about using mobile phones as input devices in electronic classrooms. Seems that the 'notation' function on the Kindle might lend itself to some type of collaborative critical analyses of written works. For the Kindle, maybe the tough issue is how to share work between users.
