A couple of the profs in my department have already put in requests with the dean to have the college use our "faculty development funds" to buy them an iPad.
I might have requested one, too, except 1) I'd rather own my own iPad than be carrying around one I'd be responsible to the College for, in terms of everything from what's on it to what I do with it to what becomes of it, and 2) in the midst of a college-wide financial crisis (where we aren't even replacing the IS guy on our branch campus who quit last semester!), I just don't have the cojones to ask them to buy me one. --Van On Jul 24, 3:06 pm, [email protected] wrote: > http://www.wired.com/epicenter/2010/07/ipad-goes-under-the-gauntlet-a... > > What do you think? > > I like the idea in higher ed to replace text books with a universal > e-reader I'm not sure the iPAD is the be all end all but, it's a start. > > Jim -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Unique Geek" group.
