Moving towards using less paper: The digital classroom takes advantage of being able to

write on the tablet in a variety of programs because it makes that written work available

anytime and anywhere. Students can submit their assignments to digital drop-boxes before

class even begins, and teachers can carry them anywhere with their tablets. Students and

teachers both retain copies of documents shared with each other, and they can collaborate

online. The teachers can retain copies of annotations made on student work.

The sound of chalk on a blackboard is something you rarely hear on many campuses these days.

That's because more and more professors use technology to distribute course materials, issue grades

and enhance communication with When students and teachers have PCs and eLearning

solutions, they have access to a wealth of exciting digital content. This changes the

way kids learn by creating an environment that’s more engaging and dynamic than

ever before.students.
