Exploring the
Impact of Digital Ink in the Classroom
IDC recently conducted a K-12 teacher survey on their
use of
technology in the classroom, and specifically their use of a
stylus-based device as a teaching tool. Of the teachers using a
digital
inking device, 90 percent reported improved quality of
curriculum materials,
and 67 percent said it increased class
preparation time.
With an ever-increasing range of classroom device
options,
school leaders should consider devices that will most directly
support authentic and efficient student-teacher engagement
and reduce time
spent on nonteaching-related activities. In this
webinar, you'll learn about teacher-reported benefits on using ink
in the classroom and how it enables
instant student feedback at
the "teachable moment." Hear how using
a device with an active
stylus provides the personalization and flexibility
of a pen and paper,
and the immediacy of instant messaging to open and maintain
personal connections at the precise moment students
would be receptive to
feedback, thus enabling better learning.
