Researching Tablets

Picture
Directions:  You are going to create a Google Slides Presentation (you may also use PowerPoint or Prezi) that will review a tablet computer that is currently on the market.  There are more and more companies producing different types of tablets and you are going to make a presentation to learn about some of these.  You may work with a partner- but share the presentation so you both can work on it simultaneously.

We want to learn about as many different tablets as possible- so don't always pick the most popular (iPads).
