Practical Lessons 02

Today we tried another thing. You have all heard that tablet PCs are the new thing. Well here is the cheaper introductory option.



As you can see it is just a simple setup of PC and Tablet connected through USB.



A tablet, pen, and mouse all wireless




About $70 from Dick Smith Electrical.



Here are two Children using handwriting recognition software in WORD practicing their handwriting (during Lunch). And they were enjoying it. Obviously the novelty factor was high but a teacher walking by said she could see how he was forming his letters from a distance. I am sure there are teachers out there who could see other ideas for this.
The software only recognizes accurate formation so the boys had to get it right before it would appear in WORD.

At NAVCON they were selling Education tablets for alot more.
