As a needs assessor you must be constantly looking for the best note taking tools to help disabled students achieve the grades they deserve. We’ve identified three key scenarios where recommending Jamworks can significantly improve the learning experience for disabled students.
By understanding these use cases, you can confidently recommend Jamworks whenever you encounter a student facing similar challenges.
Scenario #1: Does the student get easily distracted during lectures?
The challenge
Some disabled students, especially those with ADHD or attention-related difficulties, might find technology like phones or laptops more of a distraction than a help during a lecture. The constant need to switch between listening, focusing, and taking notes on these devices can sometimes cause stress and anxiety.
How Jamworks helps
Jamworks eliminates this distraction by automatically generating a complete set of text and audio notes from lectures. This means students can fully engage with the class without worrying about manually taking notes or managing technology.
The Result
By handling the note taking process, Jamworks empowers students to concentrate on learning and participation, reducing the overwhelm and anxiety that often comes from using technology during class.
Scenario #2: Does the student find it difficult to accurately capture complex STEM equations?
The challenge
Students in STEM courses might struggle to accurately capture all of the complex equations, formulas, and problem-solving steps during lectures. This difficulty can sometimes leave them with incomplete notes, making it harder to study and fully understand the material later on.
How Jamworks helps
Jamworks automatically records and transcribes not only the lecture content but also the complex mathematical notations and formulas shown in slides or discussed by the lecturer. This level of detail ensures that students have accurate, complete notes that include all the important information they need for revision.
The Result
STEM students can rely on Jamworks to get precise notes that capture even the most complicated details, empowering them to study effectively and feel more confident in their understanding of complex subjects.
Scenario #3: Does the student feel anxious about asking questions in class?
The challenge
For some students, especially those with social anxiety, speaking up in class to ask questions or engage in discussions can be intimidating. This hesitation can lead to unresolved doubts and gaps in understanding, which can sometimes negatively impact their academic performance.
How Jamworks helps
JamAI, an AI-powered tutor chatbot that allows students to ask questions and get answers directly linked to their lecture, without the pressure of speaking up in class. This creates a safe and private way for students to seek clarification and deepen their understanding. Additionally, JamAI can generate personalised study notes to reinforce what students have learned.
The result
Students are empowered to seek clarification and build their understanding in a low-pressure environment, giving them the confidence to engage with their coursework on their own terms.
No other DSA note taking tool offers the same depth of personalised support that Jamworks provides.
