Note-taking is very critical skill during the middle school years. Students with learning disabilities will use this technology to succeed in the classroom by accommodating their study and note-taking skills. The Livescribe pen with the tablet will not only help record classroom lecture notes, but it will rewrite and save to a word document. Then the word document can be replayed until the student masters the content. This equipment will be used primarily during their core classes.
With the implementation of this technology, many of my students who struggle with note-taking and study skills exacerbated by short term memory and processing skill deficits will be able to keep up with their peers in their general education class. This is a much needed accommodation tool. It gives them a level playing field as well as self-confidence in school.
