UA Faculty Choose HP2710p Tablet PC

Should be any day that we get our new HP 2710p Tablet PCs! This Fall all faculty will recieve

these sleek new computers. I can't wait to have something under 4 lbs after lugging around the Gateway M285E. I am ready for a format that is not wide screen as well. You can see specs on this at Gotta Be Mobile.

I anticipate a lot of our faculty have chosen the Tablet PC (over a regular laptop or mac book) since I have 90 faculty scheduled for 3 sessions of a workshop sponsored by our Institute for Teaching and Learning that I have called "Why Your Next Laptop Needs a Pen." The third session was added due to the demand and filled in less than a day.

  1. Steve - Your workshop on "Why your next laptop needs a pen" sounds terrific! Will you be posting any workhop materials / presentations online for the public? - Jim Vanides

  2. Sure Jim,
    You can see a proposed working group page at http://gozips.uakron.edu/~myers/UAdig.

    Of course the discussion group is private, but I expect to post the presentation both here and on my scholarship page.

    See you again at WIPTE next October.
    Steve.
