Technology Critique: ReMarkable Texts

نویسنده

چکیده

ReMarkable Texts (RMT) is an “electronic student notebook” currently under development by Brown Computer Science Department's Computer Graphics Group. Running on a TabletPC, the system aims to replace and augment the standard paper notebook with an electronic device. RMT offers a variety of tools for manipulating and annotating documents, including simple note-taking with the Tablet's stylus, simulated “Post-It Notes,” a variety of visual tags that can be associated with a location and then searched for, audio and video capture, and hyper-linking. These operations can be performed on preexisting documents created with HTML, Microsoft Word, or Microsoft PowerPoint, or on blank, user-created documents. RMT also offers a number of interactive features, such as real-time capture of notation and multimedia from a classroom presentation, and interactive work with an arbitrary number of other students running RMT. Finally, the software offers almost infinite journaling capabilities, allowing the user to place a given notation in temporal context (matching it with audio, video, and professor notation, as well as the status of other documents), and to replay a given sequence of annotations in sync with other data. Although marketed primarily to the educational market, RMT is purportedly applicable to business and professional training as well, with proposed applications to business meetings and military planning1.
