During my Kenan Fellowship I made much use of my Lenovo tablet. The tablet was a handy way for me to snap pics and make videos to share on my blogs, but also to share with my students.

Several times I handed the tablet to my students to create videos about what we were doing with gamification which I later used in presentations to teacher groups.

Sooo the tablet was super easy and definitely used a lot. The portability of the tablet made it my “go to” over my personal (and large) laptop.

Initially, I used the tablet to record everything that I learned during my externship at NC A&T. These recordings helped me to understand what was going on in the lab, and were an easy way to review as I developed my lesson plan.

And, of course it was a cool way to photo my visitors. Like when Lisa dropped by

Or, when my colleague texted me, “I’m at the Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering,” and I replied. “I’m next door, stop in!”

I am so happy I had the tablet to help me with my fellowship and I highly recommend the use of this type of technology with future Kenan Fellows.
