On the first day of WIPTE (Workshop on the Impact of Pen-Based Technology on Education), attendees decided that on the second day of the workshop that they’d record their own I’m a PC commercial — describing to the world the value and fun aspects of using Tablet PCs. Joe Tront from Virginia Tech just made this video available on YouTube. Thank you to everyone who volunteered to do this. This is my favorite "I’m a PC" story yet.
What do they describe as benefits? Here’s a list:
- Touch
- Take notes
- Record lectures
- Share ideas
- Make music
- Can make eye contact and write
- Engage students in learning
- Annotate on diagrams
- Help achieve dreams
- Help teachers teach and students learn
- Do the twist 😉
- joke about lost pen
- Do physics!
- Use it
As the Zvi states in the video, "Tablet PC, that’s the way to go!"
