Description
Be prepared to learn, share, and discuss some of the exciting uses and potential limitations of incorporating the new Tablet PC Convertibles into your courses and the classroom. There are a number of methods of using the tablets in drawing and editing modes to highlight important points, add graphic elements in a presentation, or do examples of “pen and ink” mark-up edits of papers. There are some issues with loss of mobility that we will look at, as well as ways in which that might be overcome in the future.
Also, come see a quick demonstration of remote presentations tools as one of those ways in which we might be able to free ourselves from the instructor’s station in the front of the room. Please come prepared to give us some feedback at the session on how you see these technologies being good – or bad – for your classroom.
