The “power of the pen” is already well established as an effective technique to improve student comprehension and deepening their knowledge and conceptual understanding. In this blog post I want to share some resources from the MSAU Education Team:
- A free downloadable OneNote NoteBook full of tips and tricks for effective teaching with Digital Ink.
- A series of videos (below) from Travis Smith showing how these techniques can be used.
I hope you find these useful and if you’ve got other suggestions then drop them in the comments section below.
