This paper presents the synergistic use of handheld computers and desktop computers as tools for grade school teachers to record observational data from their classrooms. The system uses handheld devices to tersely log events in situ, and allows later reflection and elaboration through annotation of the logged events on desktop computer. The terse, ephemeral capture of events coupled with post-hoc annotation has been novelly exploited to design a system that supports teachers? development as reflective practitioners and enables richer capture of grade school student behaviour and performance.
