Effective use of technology is encouraged to enrich the learning experience at the IHP.  Students should bring laptop computers to the classroom to take notes, to refer to PowerPoint presentations, to refer to websites relevant to the class discussion, or to take online exams.  All use of laptops during class periods should be related to the in-class course activities. Use of laptops while in class for activities such as reading e-mail, or accessing Internet sites such as Facebook that are unrelated to class activities is considered a violation of professional behavior standards, and may be subject to disciplinary action by the program.
