Summary
The session will focus on how the Notability app can be a powerful tool for teaching and learning in person and remotely.
Abstract
With new technologies emerging, instructors are always seeking creative ways to keep their students engaged, provide resources, and interact with students inside and outside of the classroom. Notability is a great resource, with various abilities like recorded annotation functions and editability. The app can allow you to give engaging lectures, share notes with audio recordings, create assignments, provide feedback, screen record while using the app, and many others. The ability to modify content to provide accommodations to students, and allow them a resource which they can modify as well, makes it extremely flexible. The session will discuss and demonstrate using Notability with examples for lectures, recorded lectures, annotating and creating, and other functions for notes among others.
Learning Outcomes
- Annotations as a teaching tool.
- Live and recorded lectures with notability on an iPad.
