![]() I think this would be a great feature for college students, but I get that if I was still in school, I would probably want to write notes directly in specific locations on the pages themselves – or in the margins – where I could see them physically mixed in with the “printed” words. Once you click on the icon, you can see what notes you wrote. That said, the Scribe allows you to make notes on the page of a book, which it then hides in a box with a little icon. That’s not an issue with me, as I don’t typically take notes in books. This means that the emotion in the lyric is supported by the inherent emotion in the melody. I know a lot of Scribe reviewers have been disappointed that they cannot write in the margins on e-books. The melody, harmony, and lyric speak the same message. It’s an electronic ink display, meaning it’s in black-and-white with plenty of gray shades in between. It feels much more of an accomplishment to turn the page five or six times for every one page I experience on the larger Scribe screen. But for the moment, I prefer reading books on the library app on my phone, because I can hold it in one hand and quickly turn pages. Once I figured it all out, I was fine and really enjoyed the experience. I don’t really know where the controls are, and it took some getting used to bringing up hidden menu features. Ironically, what I thought was a little messy was reading e-books on the Scribe. It doesn’t read them via OCR and type them out, like many note-taking apps do on tablets.

Mind you, I’m very used to handwriting via pen and paper – it’s my preferred method because I love the feel of it, I’ve been used to it since childhood, and it’s analog. I’ve been finding the experience of writing notes on it flawless. You can also pick a pen tip size, as well. And you can pick from many different types of digital paper – lined sheets to graph paper to checklists and everything in between. When it comes to copy typing there is no interpretation or editing required, it simple needs a typist to accurately type up the written document. There’s no latency when you put the digital stylus to the screen. But what caught my eye about the Kindle Scribe is it provides me the ability to write on a large 10.2-inch display that looks and feels appropriate for writing notes. I also have several electronic paper-pen sets that companies have sent me through the years - allowing me to hand-write notes and then digitize them by scanning the pages. is a program that helps you understand, observe, and identify the needs your student may have prior to an evaluation process. ![]() Rewinding for a moment, I’ve tried several note-taking apps on various tablets and phones in the past. As the mom of a student who learns and thinks differently, I understand how difficult it can be to go through the evaluation process. ![]()
