digital format and submitted to the LMS for grading, includingquizzes and homework assignments. Similar work has been carried out by Norwich University(NU, a small private military/civilian university with 125 FYE students covering 5 majors)through the integration of the iPad into the engineering curriculum [7]. While initially used todigitally ink notes (professors and students) and as a course and laboratory notebook (students),the iPad has since been used to deliver/take/grade exams. Multiple students have attributedimproved organizational skills and efficiency of studying to their digital tablet use.In addition to uploading written assignments, Virginia Military Institute (VMI, a small privatemilitary institute with 30 FY ECE students) has
