My daughter has language processing deficit and ADD which makes note taking in school difficult, frustrating and miserable for her! Fortunately, one of her school accommodations is to trade her notes for a copy of the teacher's notes at the end of her class period. Many times, however, she forgets to request the copy and as a high school student she is expected to advocate for herself. As a parent, I have worried endlessly as to how she will continue to be successful in school without being able to listen to the teachers and take notes on the lecture simultaneously. NOW, there is new technology that I am hopeful will help her take notes in her high school and college classes--Livescribe Smartpen! According to Livescribe's website: "While you're writing, your smartpen is remembering–linking everything you hear to everything you write. Later, simply tap on your notes to replay the recording. Now you can find and get what you need, instantly, with a tap." At the ADDA Conference last week many parents and professionals were praising this new technology. Livescribe's smartpen is rather expensive and so it is a concern of parents of children with ADD that it will get lost or misplaced just like their phones, ipods, itouch, etc. I have ordered a Livescribe smartpen for my daughter so "stay tuned" for my review of the smartpen.
