How can it Transform Courses? • Repurposing/Combining multimedia components • Annotate using ink, recognized text, multimedia • Search & analyze using note flags and search function • All-in-one portable device
Repurposing Materials • Inserting Documents as pictures • Inserting Screen Clippings • Pointing to Files • Templates can be shared via email
Bringing it all together • Sample Materials for an entrepreneurship course combining video, powerpoint slides, web resources, and an excel spreadsheet • Ink annotations and note flags help students highlight key points
Pausing playback to make a point • Diagrams and Annotations may be added on-the-fly while video is being presented in class or • stored as part of the page containing the video
Multimedia Feedback to Students • Presentations recorded using webcam or other video camera • Annotations linked to video • Video and notes may be emailed with OneNote page
Community Based Learning: Mid-Semester Usability Test • OneNote used to capture user impressions of community asset mapping application v1 • Developer team notes user suggested tweaks • Audio synched to notes
Community-Based Research & Hypertext Reports • Students used OneNote to build multimedia notes on their community visits • Multimedia materials (e.g. WMA files) used in reports – in OneNote, on the Web, in powerpoint
Enhancing Note-taking and Review • Note flags can identify important notes and/or enable limited coding of qualitative data • Search can be done on recognized text or ink!
Post-Survey Schoolyear 04-05 • How did you use the Mobile Technologies loaned out to you this semester? • What did you learn about the devices' potential applications to student activities and learning environments
Top 5 student responses • Used for note-taking • Slow Speed and Performance • Portability/Mobility • Used OneNote • Web/Internet Access
That about sums it up • “I used the Tablet pc primarily for taking notes in class. I was lucky that all my professors used PowerPoint presentations, therefore it was easy to take notes on the slides. I also sat in on some of the HUP classes (the 1 unit activity) when they were lecturing some of the student athletes were impressed with the writing capability because they said it would make it easier on the coach to show strategies and diagrams and then save it on the tablet rather than erasing off the blackboard. The devices are nice and do have a tremendous potential. i wasn't fond of the loading time it takes, so I primarily left the tablet in a hibernation mode.”
Tablet PCs Circa 2005 • Tablet PC test drive program and targeted loanouts • Faculty in non-technical fields – education, art&design • Staff in academic technology and library
