1st Year Course Curriculum Re-Design

Curriculum Redesign - 1^st Year Course: Management & Information Technology

To further introduce students to Tablet PC Functionality expanded lecture demonstrations were incorporated into the primarily first-year introductory business course (the first business school course required of Business school majors). These lectures included demonstrations of:

• Keyboard & Writing Pad (TIP –Tablet Input Panel)

• Microsoft Journal (right-clicking, double-clicking, lasso, erase)

• Virtual Printers (Document Image Writer, Journal Note Writer…)

• Microsoft OneNote (audio capture, importing electronic content, content organization, notebook organization)

•Tablet PC Experience/Education Pack

The course was altered to expand coverage of the uses of Microsoft One-Note for in-class shared sessions as well as home-work involving MS OneNote. The course also integrated a Tablet PC - Classroom oriented application called Classroom Presenter (http://www.cs.washington.edu/education/dl/presenter/) developed and distributed by the University of Washington. This application was designed for enhanced classroom sharing of digital hand written notes and is currently being integrated into the junior/senior level Information systems course.
