    Basic Truths For a Successful Technology Integration Plan:

    Education really doesn't like change, whether it is "top-down" or by "local consensus". As in any organization on this planet, you will always have 10-15% of individuals who won't like any-thing to do with change, plain and simple. So, you need to focus on the those who are willing and wanting. The Early Adapters are not, repeat, not the people that need the most of the support. You must focus on the Mid Adapters to ensure success. As for the Late Adapters, be patient!

  • Battery performance of your particular Tablet PC model
  • Charge your battery whenever you are at your workstation or AC power is available. Leaving your workstation with a fully charged battery is your first step in maximizing your mobility.
  • The brightness of your Tablet PC screen is often the number one consumer of power, so you can conserve battery power by turning down the screen brightness on your Tablet PC.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • Because some of these peripherals can draw a significant amount of power, you should consider unplugging them or turning them off in situations where you want to conserve battery power.
  • You can select from a number of power schemes that are available in Power Options in the Control Panel, you can adjust individual settings of any available power scheme, or you can create your own power schemes to suit your particular system and preferences.
