With the advent of digital pen technologies instructors and students can share their work and make classrooms more interactive in the process. Digital pen technologies are ideal for distance learning and allow instructors to create pencasts that can be posted to the web for students to access. Come learn about various digital pen solutions and how you can integrate these technologies in the work that you do.
