3 How to Assess the Tablet PC 1.Does it support greater efficiency, but does not change the curriculum? 2.Does it change the curriculum and invigorate teaching and learning, but this could have happened without the Tablet PC? 3.Does it change the curriculum with an impact that can not be achieved without the Tablet PC?

4 Microsoft Research’s First Conference on Tablet PC and Computing Curriculum, 2004 “What are the ultimate outcomes for (economic) education? How does the Tablet PC change the interaction between teacher and student and how will this impact classroom pedagogy? How does this new type of interaction affect course content and the (economic) curriculum? Are these new pedagogies and strategies applicable to other disciplines? What are the differences between classes in which only the teacher uses a Tablet PC and classes in which all the students also use one? Are there replicable strategies, tools, and techniques that can scale across large numbers of teachers and students?” Alverado (2004) pp. 1-2.
