Scanning Pens
For Students
| A scanning pen can
be immensely helpful to a student. When your workload is
heavy and your fingers tired, the last thing you need to
be doing is copying notes by hand, and re-keying them
later. Nor do you need the backache that comes from
lugging a laptop around as you do your research at a
library or other location. The basic functions
of such a pen
are:
- Scan. No more taking cryptic
notes or feeding coins to a copy machine. Or lugging
your laptop.
- Store. No more losing
important notes simply because you have too much
paper to keep track of.
- Transfer. No more re-keying.
Just transfer from your pen and you're done!
These functions are great, but
there are additional functions that you should consider
when deciding which pen best suits your needs. These
include such things as having the pen read aloud the
text you scan. Or maybe you need to know what a word
means or you need a synonym--no problem!
Let's look at each pen to
see where it fits:
