Figure 3. Problem solved!At the high school level, equal opportunity for an "ever-modernizing, ever-mobile student body"3has been achieved by the use of technology, especially tablet PCs. With a tablet PC, every deskbecomes a front row seat and a student missing class and students with handicaps have completeinternet access to notes, presentations, and assignments.3At the college level, research shows great potential for improved learning and teaching incomputer related curriculums. The inherent capability of tablet PC digital ink supports visuallearning.4 Tablet PCs can be applied to information worker tasks in an education environment.5The tablet PC also promises to improve active and collaborative learning in computer sciencecourses.6 The
