Do you have a student laptop strategy yet?
Toshiba, a proud supplier through the National Notebook Purchasing
Agreement, would like to invite you to the forthcoming forum they are
sponsoring on student laptop usage, chaired by Professor Mike Sharples
of Nottingham University.
Increasingly, students expect to be able to work in flexible ways using
their own or the institution’s laptops, and there are great benefits for
all parties in establishing the right solutions and policies.
The forum provides an opportunity for university staff interested in
mobile learning and in any aspect of student laptop use to hear what
other HE institutions have done and are planning to do, and to discuss
the common issues involved.
