  • To save battery power, you set up your computer so that when you press the power button, your computer goes into standby mode: a low power state that saves your work and quickly returns you to your desktop when you power up your computer again. You also select a power scheme that automatically puts your computer in standby mode after being idle for a certain period of time. That way, if you forget to manually put the computer on standby, it will automatically go into standby after it has been idle for a specified amount of time.
  • As a safety precaution, you set up your computer to go into hibernation when it reaches a specified low level of battery power. When your Tablet PC goes into hibernation, your opened files and your desktop are saved to the hard drive and your computer shuts down.
  • Standby reduces the power consumption of your computer by cutting power to hardware components that you are not using.

  • You can put your computer in standby automatically or manually. Automatic standby is handled by your computer through the power scheme settings. If your computer is idle for a specified period of time, it goes into power-saving standby mode. Manual standby requires you to specify an action that puts your computer in standby mode—closing the lid of your computer, pressing the power button, or pressing the sleep button. You can also select standby when you shut down Windows from the Start button. For the best management of your battery power, you should consider initiating both automatic and manual standby.
  • Hibernate saves an image of your desktop with all open files and documents, and then it powers down your computer. When you turn on power, your files and documents are open on your desktop exactly as you left them.

    A Tablet PC is a unique type of computer that allows the user to "ink" his or her input - words, sketches, diagrams and even math and science notations - and have them saved digitally. It can offer teachers new solutions for teaching and engage students so they are excited about coming to class - or doing fieldwork - and learning. The key to innovation is in their flexibility and mobility. This eBook provides information about them and classroom examples that show how they are taking educational computing far beyond the capabilities of the conventional notebook and where they are making a difference in teaching and learning. We hope you will enjoy reading about this exciting new technology.

    "A compilation of four new studies of one-to-one computing projects in K-12 schools identifies several factors that are key to the projects' success, including adequate planning, stakeholder buy-in, and strong school or district leadership. Not surprisingly, the researchers say the most important factor of all is the teaching practices of instructors-suggesting school laptop programs are only as effective as the teachers who apply them."
