Great Video Outlining the Benefits of One-to-One Computing Programs

I came across Penn State’s Center for One-to-One Computing in Education today. This site has some great videos from last year's conference, including this super video featuring interviews with their main presenters (it's a large file). This video deals with the subject of one-to-one computing in general and is not Tablet PC specific. Tablet PCs offer students EVEN MORE benefits than standard laptops!

Some of the main points the various videos touch on are: a vision of 1:1 computing in schools, student engagement in the classroom, project based learning, and knowledge CONSTRUCTION rather than mere CONSUMPTION in classrooms.
