Tablet PC Program
About the Tablet PC Program

Beginning in August 2006, IBM ThinkPad Tablet PCs made their debut in the De La Salle Institute classroom. Students who begin their freshman year at De La Salle will be required to lease or purchase the Tablet PC which will be used everyday during the four years of high school for educational and personal use.

One of our goals is to use learning technologies to support the varied learning styles of our students. This goal is met when students have the mobility of Tablet PC along with software that is readily available to them. The Tablet PCs is integrated into the larger curriculum framework to help students learn concepts, research information, and share their understanding of the materials with teachers and peers. As our classrooms continue to become more active with interactive projects, students continually are challenged to transform information into knowledge and knowledge into action. Infusing their courses with learning technologies to produce authentic intellectual work will further prepare our students for life beyond high school.

Our faculty received extensive training on enhancing student learning with a Tablet PC and to integrate technology into their lessons.
