Kudos to Vermont Academy and Mark Payton, Academy IT director.
On Friday, March 4, 2005, they launched The Vermont Slate, a potentially invaluable blog about how Vermont Academy accepts Tablet PCs on campus.
This blog will chronicle the progress of the Tablet PC Program at Vermont Academy, a small independent boarding school in Saxtons River, Vermont. In my postings, you will get a healthy dose of personal opinion as well as being able to see what we are doing, what we are doing it with, and why we decided to do it that way. One of our stated goals for this project is share what we learn with other schools. Rather than wait for “success” or “completion”, neither of which can really be defined in advance, I’m going to share what happens as it happens. I know I can learn from any discussion this generates too, so maybe we can have a symbiotic relationship.
Many of us look forward to learning from you more about how to implement a campuswide Tablet PC program. Best wishes, always.
