Context: first used for a presentation at Bangkok Patana School as part of the TECHEX conference in October 2011. Part of the blurb for that presentation read as follows:

"How Should We Use Computers To Really Encourage Learning?”… James will share some of his thoughts, reflections and tips on how best to engage students in their learning when they bring computers to your class. He will also invite you to share some of your thoughts on the same topic. Please bring a laptop.
