There are a couple types of assistive technology tools that will help students with organization. There are free-form database systems that the user can create and store electronic notes by just “jotting down” relevant information and then going back to retrieve that information later. One tools is Microsoft OneNote. You are able to place graphs, links, videos, and notes on one canvas. Another tool that helps students with organization is an information/data manager. These are tools that help students with calendars, task lists, contact data, and other information. Students are able to have programs on handheld devices as well as portable devices. Some products that help students with these organization things are Parrot Voice Mate, Franklin, and Memo to Me. A tool such as a paper-based computer pen would help students who struggle with taking notes, listening to lectures, and having problems with memory and reading. The paper-based computer pen will record and link audio to what the student writes using the pen and then the special paper. Then is able to take notes while simultaneously recording a professor speaking. The student can then go back and tap on the notes made in the notebook and the pen will play the lecture that was part of that note.
