How could a PDA be useful for Teachers?

MOBILITY!! That is how a PDA can be so useful to a teacher. Many tasks can be accomplished on the go whether you are moving about your classroom, attending meetings, working from home, or from just about anywhere. Some applications that are common among teachers using a PDA include: lesson plans, recording student behaviors, recordkeeping (financial or student records), data collection, tracking learner profiles, calendar/planning, address book/contacts, task list, memo pad, and so much more. This article from Tech Learning offers first-hand feedback from a group of teachers that are using PDA's.

Stay tuned for future posts that will offer helpful links to choosing the right PDA for you and where to find valuable downloads and software to easily accomplish the tasks mentioned above.
