Tablet PC Resources for Faculty
Student Tablet PC Evaluations
Check out the evaluation results from two surveys conducted in December 2006 concerning the impact of Tablet PCs on student learning.

During the fall 2006 semester Professor Edmonson integrated Tablet PCs and presentation software into his IET 317 course. An evaluation was conducted in order to learn what elements need work as well as what areas students find beneficial to their learning.

At the conclusion of the fall 2006 semester a survey was distributed via email to the 277 students who purchased the Gateway Tablet PC model of which 85 completed surveys were returned. The Learning Teaching Center and UDit is interested in understanding how students use their tablets, when they're being used, and what they're being used for. The overall goal is to investigate the results and develop a plan to improve the University of Dayton's use of Tablet PCs in the classroom in order to provide students with the best possible learning environment.
