My Students

Can you imagine taking notes in class, not only having your written notes but with the use of the smart pen you can have an audio recording of what was being spoken as well.

I teach 4th grade in Iowa.

We are a smaller rural district with an average graduating class of 70 students. My students have a wide variety of abilities and needs. However they are all hard working, eager, thoughtful, and caring students who love to learn.

My Project

Record everything you hear, write and draw. Tap your notes to play back your recordings. Save and share interactive notes to your computer, iPad or iPhone. Tap it. Get it. Can you imagine being able to take the homework directions home not only in written form but to also have the audio to share with a parent. No more confusion about what to do at home.

Can you imagine having this and what a difference it would make in jotting important notes of things you want to remember.

Or being able to freely listen to someone speak and be able to take notes later because you have an audio of what was said. How about test preparation. Imagine having the review notes with you in audio to use as a study tool.
