http://education2x.otago.ac.nz/cinzs/mod/resource/view.php?id=74 The article appeared in the journal Computers in New Zealand schools, and discusses the writers own impressions of the advantages and disadvantages of various brands of e-readers. The article provides valuable insight into the sorts of things we need to think about as we begin to delve into this burgeoning technology.
Cynthia from the public library, Bridget from Kings College in Dunedin (Otago SLANZA rep) and I are also in the very beginning stages of investigating a possible PD day to have a hands on look at e-books, e-readers, talk about technical issues, copyright issues and anything else that people express an interest in. Please feed back to one of us with any thoughts you may have on the topic, and with ideas of segments that would be valuable to you. It is planned that this PD be cross-sector, and perhaps opened to teachers and other interested parties also, so broad thinking please, but also consider your own specific needs.
