<font size="2"><big>If you have an iPad or other tablet computer
there are apps<br>
you can use which allow you to take notes. Some allow you<br>
to write on the pdf files of my notes and record the lecture<br>
at the same time and even video. This makes it very convenient<br>
for later when you are studying and perhaps wish to hear what<br>
was said in lecture. You can easily get to that part of the<br>
lecture if you set a bookmark on the pdf. The lists below may<br>
be a little outdated. If anyone knows of a really good one
I've<br>
not listed let me know and I'll pass it along.<br>
<br>
There's several for the iPad such as:<br>
<br>
"pdf-notes"<br>
"notes plus"<br>
"PapePort Notes"<br>
"notability" (one of the better ones, so I've been told)<br>
"evernote"<br>
</big></font><font size="2"><big><font size="2"><big>"OneNote"<br>
</big></font> <br>
There may be others.<br>
<br>
Some of these are also available for Android tablets.<br>
Some I found for Android are:<br>
<br>
"LectureNotes" (can record audio and video with two other apps)<br>
"iAnnotate PDF"<br>
"ezPDF Reader"<br>
"Evernote" (rated one of the best)<br>
"NoteLedge"<br>
"OneNote"<br>

Not all can use PDF files and annotate them and not all allow
audio<br>
or video.<br>
<br>
By the way, how about phones in class? I know how "important"
it is to<br>
always be connected to others now a days. I would appreciate
them not<br>
ringing in class. I'm not going to throw you out of class if
it happens<br>
to ring but it will cause a momentary disruption, in both the
class and<br>
my aging brain. Also, if you are<br>
texting or surfing the web that's up to you but it may mean you
miss<br>
something. Contrary to popular belief, people are not all that
capable<br>
of multitasking and actually getting anything useful out of what
you are<br>
experiencing. Try talking out loud and counting to 20 in your
head while<br>
you're talking and you'll see what I mean. Who knows, some day
I may<br>
call on you in class and ask what I just said or ask you a
question and if<br>
you are busy with other things you may not be able to answer.<br>
