Abstract
Interested in connecting users with the latest resources aimed at advancing
intellectual inquiry and discovery, researchers from Texas Tech
University Libraries decided to embark on a study to explore the practicality
of the latest technology, the iPad, within the varying functions of
academia. Using an online survey and focus groups, the researchers
sought to investigate how students and faculty felt the iPad might be used
in teaching and learning, as well as research. This article describes the
process the researchers used to obtain iPads for research and how they
explored their use in an academic setting.
