Note-taking Accommodations

Some students with disabilities have difficulty taking notes. 例如，一个有听觉处理问题的学生可能记的笔记很少或不清楚. 身体和听力障碍也可能会限制速度，使记笔记变得困难. 笔记住宿旨在提供学生自己可以获得的信息, if it were not for his/her disability. 
帮助学生记笔记是一种必要的学习便利，不能代替学生在课堂上的充分参与. 援助是在每个班级的基础上确定的，取决于每门课程的性质和教学方法，因为它与学生的残疾有关. 笔记和/或录音仅供学生个人学习使用，不得与其他个人共享，除非向所有课堂参与者提供.

提供笔记便利的常见方法包括:

• Guided notes
• Instructor lecture notes
• Presentation slides
• Notetaker notes
• Audio recordings

Guided notes are outlines, provided by the instructor, 有空格或空白，学生可以在讲座中填写. 指导笔记鼓励学生在课堂上的参与，并尽量减少写作量，以跟上所呈现的信息. 学生应该考虑使用笔记本电脑和笔记软件来做笔记. Teachers could then provide outlines electronically.
Lecture notes 教授在上课前会给学生提供笔记吗. Some professors provide comprehensive notes for each class, eliminating the need for additional note taking assistance. 这些笔记可以采用PowerPoint幻灯片、LMS笔记或其他格式的形式. 如果我们从教授那里确定不需要额外的注释, then the instructor-provided notes will suffice for this class.
Presentation slides 你的教授是否在上课前提供了课堂报告的复印件.  演示幻灯片的副本也可以作为记笔记的指南. 在课堂上使用幻灯片可以让你专注于演示，并尽量减少所需的复制或写作量.
Notetaker notes 指定的笔记记录员的笔记副本是否通过Bison无障碍门户共享. 虽然这些笔记很容易使用，但笔记的易读性或清晰度可能会限制它们的用途. These notes are also the note takers interpretation of the lecture, which may not match what you may need to remember (key concepts). 基于这些原因，你最好自己做些笔记.

Audio recording is the most accurate and complete way to capture class information, except in situations where the lecture format is highly visual, 就像在数学或科学课上一样(黑板上的数学问题或科学演示). 学生负责记录讲课内容和其他课堂信息.

Available Solutions

可采用下列其中一种方式提供笔记便利:
1.    GLEAN (formerly Sonocent Audio Notetaker)
lean是一款可以在电脑或移动设备上录制讲座的乐虎集团程序. Users can embed PDFs to accompany the audio recording. 学生可以在录音旁边添加自己的文本注释，并可以突出显示音频的部分以供将来参考. More information and tutorial videos can be found at www.glean.co. 

2.    LiveScribe™ Pens
无障碍和残疾资源中心为学生提供的LiveScribe笔数量有限. These pens can be loaned to students to use for all of their classes. LiveScribe笔既能记录讲课的音频，也能记录学生自己写的笔记, and the two are synced for convenient playback. 然后可以在各种乐虎集团程序中存储和回放笔记, including Evernote and Google Docs. More information about the Livescribe pen can be found at www.livescribe.com.

3.    Notes provided by the professor
Some professors provide comprehensive notes for each class, eliminating the need for additional note-taking assistance. 这些笔记可以是PowerPoint幻灯片、课堂笔记或其他形式. 如果我们从教授那里确定不需要额外的注释, then the instructor-provided notes will suffice for this class. 教授不需要提供他们的个人笔记或创建全面的笔记，如果他们还没有为课堂创建.

4.    Digital recorders
如果你不希望使用Livescribe笔，但你仍然想记录讲座，我们的办公室有数字录音机可供借用.

5.    Use of a personal laptop or mobile device
有资格使用笔记本电脑或移动设备做笔记的个人有责任在每次上课/会议时携带笔记本电脑或移动设备. 学生只允许在课堂上使用适当的笔记程序/软件. Students found to be misusing this accommodation (i.e., 在课堂上不允许使用互联网时使用互联网)可能会取消这一便利，并实施替代规定.

6.    Written notes by an in-class note taker
This accommodation is intended for:

• Students with sensory disabilities, for instance, those that cannot see the board, cannot write notes and watch the interpreter, etc. 
• 有身体/行动障碍的学生会影响写笔记的能力 
• 有听觉处理障碍的学生会影响他们理解课堂上实际所说内容的能力. 

An in-class notetaker may be assigned to your class to record notes. 笔记记录者将在每堂课后将笔记的副本上传到Bison无障碍门户网站. You can download the notes at your convenience from the portal. The note taker will be a student enrolled in the class, and the identity of students receiving notes is confidential. You must attend class to receive notes using this accommodation. If you are absent from class, the notes may not be provided. 同学笔记员的笔记不能代替你在课堂上的充分参与.
If a note taker is not identified within 3 days, 学生有责任联系无障碍和残疾资源中心，并将发出第二个请求以及实施替代方案. 如果没有确定笔记员，学生应联系CADR讨论替代方案.
