The format of the book as changed with times, but it seems that note taking has been left behind. We no longer use a chisel to make notes in the margins of our stone tablets, so why do we cling to highlighters and paper in the time of digital books, e-publications and readers?
The current trend is to have content at our finger tips. There is no reason this should be different in education. Our ability to learn and access the information required for our learning should also be available “on all screens, at all times, in all locations”
What we would like to achieve today: But before we get started, what do our students think are the answers to the following questions: Why are we going digital?What are the benefits of going digital?How do we make digital notes?
This may be a good time to get the students to brainstorm some ideas, it is after all the students that would have to embrace the new method of note taking and they may have their ideas. Their level of digital fluency may surprise us.

From Newsweek… May be a good visual cue for a discussion point. Guide the students with a question to spark a discussion or a debate.
Weighing up print vs digital… some of the following images may be familiar.
Evernote synchronizes all your notes, pictures, voice notes, website clippings and your own typed notes across devices. There are applications for computers, android, Mac and Blackberry. What is on one device will be on them all.
E books (in the case chess) stored on a flash drive (E:)
All lecturers have heard the, my computer crashed excuse, and losing a flash with all notes and manuals on is a real concern. Students should be encouraged to back their information up – preferably in the cloud, using “cloud computing” – like Dropbox.
Dropbox also synchronizes across devices.
If you forgot your books, they should be available everywhere (especially if you use apps like evernote and dropbox)
Adobe reader x, note taking that is neat, simple and will never get lost or look like a dog’s breakfast.
It may be advisable to have the students watch the following video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyCUMuquxB8&feature=plcp , consider embedding it into your presentation.
