csleynse‘s insight:
Students’ comments on the use of the Livescribe Echo Pen. One of the connections that can be created with the Livescribe Desktop software is using the Pencast Player app for iPhone and iPad. App reviews are mixed however.

Love this pen. I recommend it frequently to any of our SCi patients who are returning to school. There are some many ways to use this not just for note taking, but teachers can use it’s features to provide auditory feedback for testing taking. Thanks for letting others know about it. Erin
Thank you Erin for your reply! Do you or your students use the pencast app? I agree there are many other way to use the pen! We use it for specific students to speak out their answers for worksheets, tests as appropriate.
