In addition, to use them, it is required to download and install an app, create an account, etc. And although the live aspect is interesting, there are recurring problems such as no sound, no video, the microphone not working, and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>We also know that when teaching online with Moodle, participation is not so good since the students aren\u2019t engaging!&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>To tackle these problems, Amanote offers an easy-to-use solution<\/strong> that does not require any software installation or account creation. <strong>Amanote \u201cPodcast\u201d <\/strong>allows teachers to record oral explanations for any PDF course material (slides, syllabus, article, etc.) and share them with students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The students can then listen to the audio recording while taking notes in line with the corresponding page of the course material. Thus, students have the opportunity to actively follow the course using only one integrated tool. In addition, the Amanote format consumes up to ten times less bandwidth than a video.
