- Ideal for reference materials and research, as well as tools for fieldwork
- Transforms education across the curriculum:
- Language arts: all grade levels can take notes, highlight and annotate reading assignments and worksheets
- Mathematics and science: students can create graphs and diagrams, predict trends, record observations in class or in the field
- Support improved retention, organization, capture of video/audio while taking notes, collaboration, and peer review
In the News
Hear what the press is saying about the Intel studybook:
- I can almost smell the holy grail…the right hardware, the right ecosystem, the right price. Intel has hit a home run with its Studybook. [ZDNet]
- Actually using the tablet is going to be a pleasure for kids in the way that a computer has never been. If you think about it, tablets really are the ideal learning device—especially now that kids basically grow up with tablets in their hands. We demoed a few different programs running on an Android version of the tablet, and the results were impressive. [Gizmodo]
- Russell Beauregard, an Intel Ph.D. whose titles include “human factors psychologist,” last week demonstrated how the tablet’s front-facing camera can be enhanced with an add-on lens that turns it into a microscope. Exploiting that view, and software for the device, students can observe and measure objects like the size of an insect’s leg or grains of sand. Another camera application makes it easy to conduct time-lapse photography of phenomena such as plants turning toward sunlight, he says. [Wall Street Journal]
