Jerel Chong (Product Manager at HP Australia) explains via video why schools and educational environments should consider using Tablet PCs over standard notebooks.
Here’s a sample of reasons HP explains why school people should consider Tablet PCs.
1. Use of Ink to write directly on the Tablet screen.
2. With OneNote, students can write and record teacher lessons and lectures for future study and reference.
3. Students can submit work for teacher review and grading via WIFI.
4. Tablets have undergone 95,000 hours of testing, including drop-tests, which he demonstrates.
5. They have Durakeys that allow the letters and numerals to withstand use.
6. A barrier between keys and the electronics underneath protects against liquids spilled on the keyboard.
7. Chemical processes protect screens from scratches.
8. Accessories include a battery that allows 10 hours of use, enough for one full school day before recharging.
