Recently for a Uni project I crafted a recommendation report on this very subject. It is a very interesting concept, however many educators were against this concept and were specifically against GLASS in the classroom. It should be noted that teachers were also vehemently against laptops and iPads five years ago.

With little to zero empirical evidence regarding wearables in higher ed it was a difficult project. I concluded or really speculated that the current item most fit for evolving education practices in higher ed ( Blended learning, flipped classroom, gamification, etc.) was the smartwatch. It has vitals trackers for engagement levels as well as a controllable single screen.

An innovative professor I interviewed has a very interesting concept i did not see elsewhere, the MEEC. Below is a great article explaining his teaching methods.
