Description:  Teachers often repeat that just as the students learn from them, they often learn things from the students. This is often true, it seems, when it comes to technology, where our students often have the jump on their professors in knowing the latest and greatest of those tools. This week, I experienced this when a student recommended a hip-hop video to help cement that famous principle from intro accounting: debits on the left; credits on the right.
