And students can download a free AudioNote viewer program for Windows and Mac computers. The teacher would have to pay for the app, but you can export or share the AudioNote file to students for free. Teachers could use this app to record lessons to share with students.
Recording lessons for students to watch later and interactively jump around to different sections of the lesson. You can scrub back a few seconds to see what the person said. But with AudioNote, it’s kind of like “live” pictures on an iPhone. Sometimes in a meeting someone says something and it’s brilliant but then you can never get it exactly the way they set it in the moment is lost. I think I should use this app more in small group meetings, especially as long as everyone around the table knows that this is an audio recording app.
But in university, a lot of students are ready taking audio recordings of the lectures, so this is an app that does it one step better. I’m not sure teachers would want every word they said to be recorded, or for students to be recorded, unbeknownst to them. I think if I was a student at university or college, this would be a great app to take notes in because you can record the professor teach through the lecture and then later on when you’re reviewing your notes you have the original audio recording and it’s synced to your notes which is pretty cool.Īlthough this would be a great tool for the classroom, I think in terms of privacy issues, this would be a harder sell. How could you use AudioNote in the classroom? I also like how, as you’re typing, it adds a little timestamp of what part of the audio recording it’s at on the left margin.
It gets better because when you’re in playback mode, you can touch a word that you typed or line that you drew and it’ll jump to that part of the audio recording.Īlso, there’s the traditional time scrubber which lets you move forward and backwards in the audio recording, so kinda like in a regular video you’re able to move forwards or backwards just by moving the slider Touch a word you typed and AudioNote will jump to that part of the audio recording What’s even cooler about AudioNote is that it makes a great review tool because as you are in playback mode you can actually type and draw in new notes and AudioNote is smart enough to be able to sync the audio recording with the new notes that you’re typing. You can type in new notes as you listen back to your audio recording This means that when you play back the audio it highlights the notes that you took, the words that you typed, and the diagrams that you drew as it plays along in sync. Your notes are synced to the audio recordingīut what makes AudioNote even better is that all the time that you’re taking notes, you’re actually recording a voice memo and more importantly it syncs to the text and the drawings that you’re taking in your notes. Maybe Google will buy out AudioNote one day… Reason 2. And then some students get sucked into trying to draw a Google drawing and it just doesn’t work easily. So many of my students like to type on their phone and take notes, but the problem is you can’t circle words or add highlighted lines easily. I only wish that Google documents could let you draw diagrams in addition to typing notes. So, you could take a picture of a diagram from the textbook and then switch to pen mode to annotate certain parts of the diagram and then switch to textmode and start typing some notes. You can both type and add drawings into your notes.Īll you have to do is switch to pen mode and you can start to annotate pictures or circle words.Įven better, you can switch to highlight mode and you can highlight certain lines that the teacher said was important.įinally there is a photo mode which allows you to take a picture and insert it into your notes.

The app popped up a little window saying that I could upgrade to the new AudioNote 2 which has higher quality recordings. So right now I’m using the AudioNote app on my iPhone. I’m trying to decide if it’s worth upgrading to the new AudioNote 2 version.
