Section 21 Pen Readers/Recorder for Notes
Pen readers are a great idea that people often forget about in the world of software. We think of hardware for people with more significant disabilities. You can buy a pen that reads print text. Online text is accessible and paper text is not. With a pen reader, the truth is paper text can be read to you.
Livescribe records notes and syncs them to what you write. This is a great tool for students. With all of the options out there sometimes people forget this option.
Livescribe
This is a pen that syncs a person’s voice to the notes that are taken. The notes and audio are then turned into a video. This pen is used for someone with a disability. However, I like this pen for teachers trying to create a lesson. This is one way to flip a classroom.
