[Athen] Live Scribe demo

[Leyna Bencomo]

I find it effective to individually train students to use the smart pen because they are all so different.  I have some students who only write symbols or short words and we assign meaning to them so that they can take effective notes.  For example, a star could mean that something will be on the test or a circle means there is a homework assignment in the audio.  Another student could be technology-shy and I never teach them to upload notes.  They just learn to take notes and study from their notebooks.  Many students have processing issues and I give them fake 3 minute lectures while they practice taking notes.  Sometimes they need to do this a few times before they are comfortable enough to use it in class.  The practice includes taking the cap off the pen and putting it in the case so it doesn't get lost, turning the pen on, pressing the record button, etc.   Some want more practice and I tell them to turn on a cooking show or a documentary on the Animal Planet network on TV and take notes.  They get the hang of it that way.  This kind of individual training gives me a much higher success rate than having them watch general instructional videos.  There are a number of Livescribe tutorials in Youtube by the way to add to Joseph's rich selection.

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone has a Live Scribe demo or overview presentation that they would be willing to share with me so I don't have to reinvent the wheel?

Thanks,

Bryon
