In education, note-taking is an important learning skill that influences learning success. Nowadays, various digital technologies allow students to take notes in many different forms. This can be particularly helpful for students with special needs, as digital technologies have the potential to support them in circumventing difficulties, which can impact their note-taking and learning. However, the use of digital technologies as a note-taking tool is highly dependent on students’ choices. This pilot study explores the practices of using information and communication technologies (ICT) for note-taking among Slovenian university students. The study involved 44 students without special needs and 21 students with special needs. The data was collected using an online questionnaire. Based on the results, the study outlines the development of an assistive ICT tool for note-taking that takes into account the identified students’ practices and reported needs.

摘要

In education, note-taking is an important learning skill that influences learning success. Nowadays, various digital technologies allow students to take notes in many different forms. This can be particularly helpful for students with special needs, as digital technologies have the potential to support them in circumventing difficulties, which can impact their note-taking and learning. However, the use of digital technologies as a note-taking tool is highly dependent on students’ choices. This pilot study explores the practices of using information and communication technologies (ICT) for note-taking among Slovenian university students. The study involved 44 students without special needs and 21 students with special needs. The data was collected using an online questionnaire. Based on the results, the study outlines the development of an assistive ICT tool for note-taking that takes into account the identified students’ practices and reported needs.
