Battery Life Battery Life
Battery Life Battery Life • 2-3 Hours per battery • Extra batteries • Leave them charging • Swap when necessary • Laptop shows battery status
Notes on use • Cart must be plugged in 2 ways • Into network drop (maybe 2 network drops!) • Into electrical outlet • Wireless networking is slower than wired • Range of wireless is >200 feet*, but performance decreases as distance increases
Notes on use • Buildings work out own schedule, usually with Media Clerk • Suggestion: reserve it for half-day periods with your neighbors to reduce moving it.(Moving it every hour is too much hassle.) • Use of cart isn’t mandated, but training is.
Benefits • Great for occasions when you don’t need whole lab or if lab is booked. • Some activities work better in classroom. • Nice for lab follow-up for kids who need to catch up.
Quotes • Because there is extra lab time, I have been able to use the laptops for several hours in a row. –D. Begin • Overall, my kids love them. They like being able to work on them. They are fascinated with the fact that they are not connected to anything. –D. Jablonski • I had them do a simple Word document with pictures and inserts to help them practice using the pad. –D.
