Could the combination of Evernote’s handwriting and shape recognition plus a graphic tablet/digital pen achieve at least some of what a tablet PC purports to do? Are there any benefits beyond what can be achieved without this hardware/software combo for students or their teachers?
I don’t know but it could be well worth a look. Evernote isn’t expensive but those graphic tablets are a might expensive, particularly for large scale use, but could still be within the budget of an institutional learning/teaching resource centre and, for the moment, beat the high relative cost of full blown Tablet PCs. Evernote’s User Stories make an interesting read.
