Tablet Sharing Session via Distance
(New Format)
This is our first technology workshop that is not
on campus. Actually, we will be gathering online to share our
successes with Tablet PCs, big and small. (This means you can stay
home in your pajamas.) We will use a software program called
GoToMeeting to accomplish this task. As a discussion point please
review this
blog post for teachers new to Tablet
PCs. (Audio requires you to have a mic and headset or you can use
a standard long-distance call-in number.)
