Abstract

Information flood is an essential facet of the digital age. Consequently, organizing information of an explicit subject efficiently, without losing the overview is difficult. In education and especially in academic education, information management is a sensitive issue for freshmen and sophomores. Many students are overburdened with the new situation at university having to organize and manage all the new knowledge they obtain in lectures. The use of new media by lecturers and students provides an opportunity to overcome these challenges. Moreover, communication, cooperation and interaction with each other are examples of the social skills, being nowadays’ important factors in education and professional life. We present the application OneNote by the use of Tablet PCs in a sophomore lecture at the Berlin Institute of Technology, aimed at teaching students how to cooperate in their project-work using this collaborative platform. The implementation is described and a first evaluation is presented. Finally, a highly desirable extension for integrating mathematical notation is outlined.
