Investigate




I am now doing a project about new technology. I chose tablet PC's as a topic. A tablet PC is a laptop with a touch screen. Usually you can twist the screen around so you can write on it with a special pen. It is like a mechanical notebook. It can help us in school because we can write quick notes on the computer without typing. Of course you can also type normaly. There are a lot of companys that make Tablet PC's. There is Toshiba, Acer, Dell, HP, IBM and Fujitsu. A Tablet PC costs around 1000 to 2000 Dollars. It is used all the time. A lot of people use it. I think it is a great invention.

How I can use iGoogle to support my learning at school

I now have an iGoogle account. It is very useful because you have everything you need on one page. For example, if you need to check if someone wrote an e-mail and serach something on the internet you go to iGoogle and search whatever you have to search and check your e-mail. You can use it for homework, for work, for school ... I can use it check what someone else wrote on their blogs, if my teacher send a e-mail to me, if I have homework, what subject I have next, what afterschool activities I have etc.
