After reading this article it makes me wonder if the kindle software is 
accessible with window-eyes.  If so then wouldn’t the solution have been to 
provide the people taking this course with a copy of the software?  It seems to 
me that would have solved the problem without removing the kindle device for 
everyone else.  

So has anyone looked at this software and how useable is it?
