Research Abstract |
We evaluated a note sharing system for classroom learners, which enables the teacher and students can see the other students' handwriting activity through Anoto digital pens. Results of group interview revealed that three factors of "enlarging interaction area", "releasing initial answers", and "self relative positioning" enhanced "reflection", "hesitation on releasing", "volition" and "awakening". We also compared unstable ultrasonic pen system and Anoto-based pen system. The simplicity and stability of the Anoto-based system facilitated active participation of low-performing students, while high-performing students felt less uneasy about the system checking their notes.
