Tablet PC‘s for integration of Cooperative Learning Groups with a Dynamic Visual Context
HP Leadership in Technology for Teaching, 2007
Tablet PCs are used to enhance the active learning envi-
ronment in physical chemistry, biochemistry and general
chemistry courses. Students use the tablets to access
and examine web based animations and simulations in a
small group learning format, constructing knowledge of
chemical models through an interactive process.
Tablet PCs are used to provide students
with real-time experimental data in the
Junior level strengths of material labora-
tory. The system allows students to
observe the physical phenomena demon-
strated in the experiment and individually
manipulate and examine the experimental
data on a real-time basis.
