Customer Success Stories
Learn how institutions are using Amanote to enhance student engagement
“Amanote appealed to us for several reasons. First of all, its perfect integration in Moodle but also its ease of use and versatility (possibility to take both handwritten and typed notes, to position markers to annotate, to write equations etc).”
“We've been using online material sharing tools for several years (Moodle), but we wanted to make the experience more collaborative, going beyond the idea of just delivering content.”
“Initially, we were interested in this solution for our younger students, but we realised as soon as we started using it that Amanote is used by all types of students.”
What the Research Shows
Insights on student engagement and learning outcomes
Displaying the teacher’s slideshow on students’ devices prevents multitasking and promotes engagement during lectures
Michinov, N., & Hutain, J. (2023). Displaying the teacher’s slideshow on students’ devices prevents multitasking and promotes engagement during lectures. Active Learning in Higher Education, 0(0).
The study demonstrates that displaying the teacher's slideshow directly on students' devices during lectures significantly reduces multitasking and enhances engagement. This approach suggests that tools like Amanote, which display both the slides and note-taking interface together on student devices, can effectively prevent distractions and promote deeper involvement in learning.
How much mightier is the pen than the keyboard for note-taking? A replication and extension of Mueller and Oppenheimer (2014).
Morehead, K., Dunlosky, J., & Rawson, K. A. (2019). How much mightier is the pen than the keyboard for note-taking? A replication and extension of Mueller and Oppenheimer (2014). Educational Psychology Review, 31(3), 753–780.
This study replicated previous research suggesting longhand note-taking is superior to typing but found no significant difference in learning outcomes when students reviewed their notes afterward, regardless of the method used. This highlights the importance of tools like Amanote, which support both digital typing and handwriting to match each student's preferred note-taking style.
