This is the first piece of technology that I can truly say that I love. For me to have the ability to write, but still be able to save items, has been a great improvement.
The classes have been helpful. I found the first day to be helpful with introductions to the 2007 Word, Excel, and Powerpoint, as well as OneNote and Journal.
It was a very comfortable atmosphere for asking questions; this made learning about the PC Tablet a painless experience. It was good having the free time at the end of the class sessions for questions and for investigating sites for applying web sites to lesson presentation, though I think there was maybe too much of this time.
The web links to Microsoft that were placed on the web site have been very informative; I have learned "new" things about Excel, and I've been using Excel for a decade.
The information that the staff told us about the web sites that are out there for use was good, and the information about copyright was valuable.
The time spent teaching us to make our own web sites and using Outlook was VERY helpful. Maybe next year spending a little time teaching them to make different tabs for for their web sites (for different sections of class, for example) might be helpful for them.
Thank you so much for your time. I really appreciate it.

Subject: How was it?? Post here!
So how was it...really? Did you finish the class with the tools you need to really put the tablet to work in your classrooms? Do you need more?
Post here to tell the tech staff about your experience. Tell us if we missed anything, or spent too much time on something that you didnt find useful.
