Marden,
thanks for getting back to me....I would also use the PDA for attendance and dress code purposes....instead of carrying a clipboard...Like all technology deveices, I'm sure there are glitches here and there..

Lenny,

I use a PDA that has the Polar PE Manager software on it, with my class lists downloaded on it. I use it in conjunction with the Polar Heart Rate Monitors. Both the watches and the PDA have a infered port on them so I can quickly send the information from the watches to the PDA and show the students their heart rates.

I teach P.E. in Phoenix AZ. I use my PDA for grading on an excel spread sheet. works great.

I have a PDA and I use it for assessments. It is a lot easier to assess and then record it right on my PDA, rather than write it down on paper than transfer it to my computer. I can record the grades on my PDA and I have software that allows me to also use it and make changes on my computer. I would recommend it!
