New to Handhelds in the Classroom

I use a handheld in the classroom as a student, and I could share what I have learned about it with you. I dont know if you're looking for a student perspective or a teacher though.

I have a website about using Pocket PCs in the classroom - my experiences and rantings at www.pocketedfutures.com . Another great resource is Tony Vincent's Learning in Hand www.learninginhand.com . Fantastic education software is the GoKnow Handheld Learning Environment - www.goknow.com

Good Luck

I would love to hear from a student. Tell me the good and bad. I teach high school English. Give me some ways you would like to see a teacher use the handheld. I actually never thought of getting a student's perspective-what a great idea!

Ian,

Thanks for the info. I've actually already been to learning in hand and go know, both excellent resources. I want to hear about real life experiences. How other high school English teachers are using handhelds. What's out there for IPAQs, since everything seems to be geared for Palms, etc..

I will check out your site as well.

Thanks.

PNation,
Other resources to checkout would be the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) website dealing with handheld computing:http://www.iste.org/sighc

Another good site is run by Grahm Brown-Martin in the UK:http://www.handheldlearning.co.uk/
This site has a number of articles that are posted by contributing authors as well as a forum dedicated strictly to education.
