Note-taking can be challenging, especially if you have a Learning Disability, ADHD, and/or Developmental Coordination Disorder.

The good news is there are many tools to help make note-taking easier and more efficient. Capture notes that support your listening efforts and in the end create a useful study guide with options such as:

  • note-taking pens and apps that record audio notes,
  • convert handwritten text to digital text and,
  • a notebook that can save handwritten notes to the cloud.

In this workshop, Cathi will introduce you to all of the current note-taking apps, SmartPen options, recording options, and Sketchnoting.

Whether you are taking notes at school, at work, or in a course, you will find something here that will level up your note-taking game.
