Getting Started with Tablet PCs: A Guide to Innovation, Flexibility, and Mobility for Learning Digitally (A Digital Learning Environments eBook)

A Tablet PC is a unique type of computer that allows the user to "ink" his or her input – words, sketches, diagrams and even math and science notations - and have them saved digitally. It can offer teachers new solutions for teaching and engage students so they are excited about coming to class – or doing fieldwork – and learning. The key to innovation is in their flexibility and mobility. This eBook provides information about them and classroom examples that show how they are taking educational computing far beyond the capabilities of the conventional notebook and where they are making a difference in teaching and learning. We hope you will enjoy reading about this exciting new technology.
