LiveScribe Pen

Transform your handwritten notes into an amazing learning tool! Record what you say as you write and share the "pencasts" so your students can review complex material. Transfer your notes and audio to the computer and share with your students in Blackboard. It is particularly helpful for STEM subjects. Additionally, if you have a class that requires faculty to draw or sketch, note that some of the video conferencing tools include a whiteboard feature worth exploring.
