Snapchat as Flash Cards

Here's a guy using Snapchat as a means to reinforce the major points in his lectures. He gets a lot of grief in the comments. I wanted to post a comment at the end of this article, but NPR never sent me a confirmation of registration e-mail, so I was unable to. Simply put, all he's doing is sending his students the equivalent of 3X5 flashcards, something some of them will doubtless do with their lecture notes anyway, to refresh their memory. What a great idea.
