WHAT IS IT?
“The Internet of Things (IoT) is a scenario in which objects, animals or people are provided with unique identifiers and the ability to automatically transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction. IoT has evolved from the convergence of wireless technologies, micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) and the Internet.” source http://goo.gl/V52Y6r

HIGHER EDUCATION IS AN IMPORTANT AREA FOR EXPERIMENTATION WITH GLASS AND OTHER WEARABLES, NOT ONLY BECAUSE THEY ENHANCE TEACHING, BUT BECAUSE THEY HELP US UNDERSTAND HOW WE SHOULD BEST INTERACT WITH AND INCORPORATE THESE TECHNOLOGIES INTO OUR SOCIETY'S FUTURE.
Melissa Woo, Vice Provost for Information Services and CIO at the University of Oregon and an early Google Glass Explorer stresses that higher education has a vital role to play in the field of wearable computing, that goes beyond just using the technology.
