A recent trip I took, I had the opportunity to visit the St. Agnes academy in Houston Texas. They have been using a product by Symantec called SVS Pro to deliver a online portal to the students which integrates into the classes and seemlessly offers the books and applications needed for the students to learn in a whole new way! I was able to get the perspective of sevearl students, a math teacher (whom I hear is one of the students favorites), as well as a great technical talk from Jason Hymes the director of Technology.

Here is the video it runs approximatly 5 minutes.

The url for the school is: http://www.st-agnes.org/ (if you have kids and live in that area, it looks like a great place to send your children).

I was excited to hear that in this morning's ManageFusion keynote, Symantec Chief Operating Officer Enrique Salem announced that Symantec has signed a definitive agreement to acquire industry-leading application streaming vendor AppStream. This should make the SVS Professional product all the stronger, as AppStream has been providing the streaming component of this product already.
