The future of technology in education means many things to many different people. eBooks, natural user interfaces, touch screens, gaming in education and the consumerisation of IT are all themes that are voiced when the topic comes up for debate. A hot topic, for sure!

A code sample is worth a thousand words.  Here are a few projects to take a look at that go beyond just code snippets to show you how to put key technologies together in the form ofsample applications.  (Note, if you are looking for just code snippets and focused codesamples, you can check out the Microsoft All-in-One Code Framework project site on CodePlex.)

A Tweeting .NET Micro Framework breathalyzer

This project shows how you can use the Netduino Plus to make a tweeting breathalyzer—a standalone breathalyzer that can post messages about the detected alcohol level to Twitter, using an inexpensive alcohol gas sensor.

The Netduino is an open source electronics platform based on a 32-bit microcontroller running the .NET Micro Framework. The Netduino Plus is similar to the original Netduino, but adds a built-in Ethernet controller and MicroSD slot. Since the Netduino Plus can connect directly to a network, it can independently communicate with Twitter’s API without being connected to a computer. read more

Imagine the Future with Skype + KINECT…Wow!!

MAKE SURE YOU WATCH these videos to get a glimpse of what our future may look like…WOW!!!  Just AMAZING!!

There maybe many questions about Microsoft’s decision to buy Skype, but one thing is for sure — it can take video conferencing and video calling to a whole different level, thanks to Kinect. If you watch these videos, you can easily imagine the future of video-based calls.

You can make and receive high-quality video via the big screen televisions using broadband-connected XBox 360 with Kinect and Microsoft Messenger. Replace the Messenger with Skype and suddenly Kinect-based calls can go anywhere.

They can start at home and end up on any device – Android, iPhone, iPad and some days on Windows Phone 7 powered phones as well. Same goes for calls emerging from your phones and ending up on the big screen.

Even more immersive calling? Sure why not. At the bottom of this page is the video of a MIT Media Lab project that shows how Kinect can be used for immersive video conference calls. Microsoft’s Skype, Apple’s Facetime and Google Voice are suddenly competing for our communication minutes via video calling.
