Description
This session will look at the use of the TabletPC as replacement for the electronic whiteboard, with the advantage that it is portable, and can be used to create a more student interaction with its onscreen drawing technology. Recent improvements in wireless technology and presentation software also allow a broader range of activity than prior classroom applications such as Classroom Presenter (from the University of Washington). At the end, I will discuss what the future may hold towards overcoming some of the current limitations to this promising technology.
