Can we learn and perform better if we use a digital pen instead of a tablet, or a tablet instead of a keyboard?  Sharon Oviatt, leading researcher in educational interfaces will share her insights on how the unique affordances of various physical interfaces (digital pen, paper, multimodal, keyboard/mouse, etc.) impact how well people think, solve problems and learn with technology.  Not to be missed if you're in Sydney.

See also Oviatt's excellent new book on the topic, The Future of Educational Interfaces.

The seminar will be held from 11:00-12:00 with questions to follow,
Wednesday, 11 September at the CoCo Research Centre at the University of Sydney.  Full details here:
