The potential of Palm devices integrated with a campus wireless network can facilitate the use of elearning tools to enhance tutor-student and student-student communication, collaboration, reflection and critique. Student productivity will be enhanced by the provision of a ubiquitous computing environment. The paper outlines how this will be achieved at Unitec.
