Sumario:The article reports on instructor-driven experiments in classroom pedagogy using tablet personal computers (tablet PC). Interactive scenarios between teachers and students using tablets on a wireless network are described using the applications Classroom Presenter and especially Group Scribbles, developed by the authors.
