Handheld technology allows students to access point-of-care resources throughout the clinical experience. To assess the viability of replacing student smartphones with tablets, an evaluation project was undertaken. Overall, students were equally dissatisfied with the 2 types of tablets that were evaluated. Students saw the potential usefulness of tablets to manage clinical assignments, interact with the learning management system, and communicate with faculty, but not for retrieving information currently accessible on their phones.
手持技术使学生在整个临床实习过程中都能获取即时医疗资源。为了评估用平板电脑取代学生智能手机的可行性，开展了一个评估项目。总体而言，学生对所评估的两种平板电脑同样不满意。学生们看到了平板电脑在管理临床作业、与学习管理系统互动以及与教师沟通方面的潜在用途，但在获取他们手机上目前可获取的信息方面却并非如此。
