It’s worth noting also that we are one of this year’s HP Tablet grant recipients. We have 21 tablets that we will be evaluating in clinical and lecture settings. We hope that the outcome of this evaluation will be the proof of usefulness of tablets in education and medicine alike. I can’t deny that it would be pretty cool for KUMC to be at the forefront this technology.
Cheers to KUMC. You sure hold up your fine reputation by stepping up toward the front of the line again. Maybe you have a blog to tell us about your experiences, so others may learn more? In any case, let us know of your progress.
