Steven Myers, Professor of Economics at The University of Akron, and Dan Talley, Associate Professor of College of Business and Information Systems at Dakota State University, are letting people know about their recent publication for the American Economic Association (AEA), "Looking Beyond the Whiz-bang Technology: Using Mobile Learning Technology Tools to Improve Economic Instruction".

The paper addresses three scenarios -- where the instructor has a Tablet PC and the students do not, where the instructor does and students bring laptops, and where the instructor and the students both have Tablet PCs. We hope that the teaching and learning community in economics profits from our work. However, the work will not stop with this paper, this blog will be the source and link to other assistance to using the Tablet PC in economics.

What Is New in Tablet PCs and UMPCs.
