Aoyama Gakuin University, located in Tokyo, Japan, is providing all staff and students with free iPhone 3G units as part of an attendance tracking system.
According to the Mainichi Daily News, the school will leverage the iPhone 3G’s GPS to determine if students are at school or not, with the system scheduled to go live in the fall.
In addition, the school plans to expand the use of the iPhone to include simple testing, questionnaires, homework submission, and educational video review.
