What do you students think about software that would run on a mobile device 
that could be used for taking down melodic dictation?  A configuration we're 
starting to see a lot now is a mobile device paired with a braille display 
or notetaker that has its own braille keyboard.  With such a system, the 
teacher could play the exercise, you could write it on the braille keyboard, 
and then, when he comes around to glance at students' papers, you just hold 
up your mobile device, like the way people these days show an attendant a 
boarding pass on their mobile device's screen?

And if the technology decided not to work at that particular moment, it 
would look so cool and trendy that perhaps the teacher wouldn't notice 
<smile> or you might have a record of it on your notetaker to read to the 
teacher after class, as some of us do now.
