<font size="2"><big>If you have an iPad or other tablet computer
there are apps you can<br>
use which allow you to take notes. Some allow you to write on
the<br>
pdf files of my notes and record the lecture at the same time
and even<br>
video. This makes it very convenient for later when you are
studying<br>
and perhaps wish to hear whatwas said in lecture. You can
easily get<br>
to that part of the lecture if you set a bookmark on the pdf.
The lists<br>
below may be a little outdated, there's probably other new ones
which<br>
work just as well. If anyone knows of a really good one I've
not listed<br>
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 texting or surfing the web
that's up to<br>
you but it may mean you miss something. Contrary to popular
belief,<br>
people are not all that capable of multitasking and actually
getting anything<br>
useful out of what you are experiencing. Try talking out loud
and counting<br>
to 20 in your head while you're talking and you'll see what I
mean. Try<br>
reading something while you're talking or counting out loud.
Who knows,<br>
some day I may call on you in class and ask what I just said or
ask you a<br>
question and if you are busy with other things you may not be
able to answer.<br>
