Digital Note Taking-Bowersox


DigiMemo is a digital notepaText Colord with a pen very similar to an ordinary ink pen. It senses the pen movements while you are writing or drawing on regular paper and saves this information as BMP, JPG, GIF or PNG format or as PDF file. DigiMemo stores this information in its built-in memory or in an optional flash memory for expandable capacity. The files can be transferred to a computer hard drive via USB port, or sent by cell phone. DigiMemo lets users digitally view, edit, organize, email and share their handwritten notes without having to scan them.

This technology would be very useful to students when having to take daily notes. Often students are worried about writing their notes down, rather than actually listening and making meaning of what the teacher is saying. With DigiMemo students can organize their notes after class and collaborate with others to fill in and get feedback on certain notes.
