<div class="moz-cite-prefix">This isn't helpful advice one way or
another on a particular tablet, however, is the school integrating
them as in having them for teachers and having a few in each
classroom or assigning one to each student? <br>
<br>
If they are assigning them to the students, I would be tempted to
get at least one of the same make as the school is getting and
having the frontline staff train on using that tablet so that they
have some familiarity if/when a student (or their parent) comes in
with a question about how to do something with their device.. <br>
<br>
Have a good weekend. <br>

(I too like the yellow legal tablet, but I'm too cheap for Mead
and use generic.... )<br>

Seriously though, the Windows surface can integrate really
well into AD and allows for all the same security and control
you have on laptops and desktops. They are a little pricy and
they don't support as many apps as an iPad.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I hope you’re having
a great day and enjoying the end of
summer! Our local school system is
working to integrate tablets and we are
thinking about purchasing a tablet for
our Children’s Department as a way to
support this. I’m not sure where to
start because there are so many options
available, so I have a few questions.
Any help or advice you have would be
greatly appreciated.</p>
