In my writing course, the students are going to get the opportunity to submit papers and projects prepared in word by using their tablets. My feedback can be given right within the document. Students will be asked to respond to corrections by finding and explaining correct responses. students are also encouraged to take notes and use the highlighting feature of their tablets. I plan to have my students explore and share apps with each other, especially those that address needs that relate to the mechanics of writing, which is usually a problem area. We are going to explore apps together! In addition, Prizi Presentation and Haiku Decks apps will be explored as an alternative to PowerPoint for the submission of their final research presenation.
I feel that it is up to the me as the instructure to incorporate and manage the use of tablets in my courses.
