Knowledge, Learning, Community
This is very cool - students at the Medill School of Journalism have created four prototype digital tablet applications: a kitchen assistant (the iCook tablet),a virtual sports connection for baseball fanatics at the stadium,a tablet for tourists, and a tablet for golfers on and off the course. The implication, of course, is that context sensitive content can be delivered anywhere and will often be delivered where specific learning or information is required. The class was sponsored by Thomson Multimedia, the division of the education, news and publishing company that manufactures the portable e-book readers. Inside Medill News, June 5, 2001.
