PAAM for Pocket PC enables teachers to effectively manage and assess students' documents created on their handheld computers. When students sync their handheld computer, PAAM retrieves their documents from the handhelds and stores them on GoKnow's secure website. From any networked computer, teachers can review and assess student work, distribute assignments and provide feedback. Parents can also review their child's work from their home computer.

HLE Tools for Pocket PC provides classroom-tested and approved software in a learner-centered suite of productivity applications for handhelds. These software tools integrate concept mapping, word-processing, drawing and animation, and downloading Web pages.

HLE for Pocket PC can directly link PiCoMap, Sketchy and Pocket Word documents into one overall project document. Each project is made up of nodes and each node can contain documents. For example, clicking on one node could take you to a Sketchy animation, while clicking on the central node could take you to a Pocket Word document with questions posed by the teacher. Web pages can also be incorporated to add rich content for student research.

One of the keys to successful integration of any technology into the classroom is to make certain that the technology enriches curriculum rather than becomes the curriculum. Our goal is for teachers to infuse the handhelds into their lessons rather than dramatically change their teaching practices. The collection of lessons included helps teachers incorporate HLE into their curriculum in meaningful ways by providing many examples and lessons they can adapt for their own purposes.

Each lesson details software used, learning objectives, and provides a short narrative as to how a particular lesson might fit into a larger unit or subject matter. In addition, all lessons cite national standards, assessment strategies, and other tips from teachers based on in-class experiences.
