The Use of iPad For Calculus Class in Higher Education: Notability Application

Abstract

Mobile devices have turned into attractive educational learning tools. While the majority of prior study has largely focused on the benefits of mobile learning for students, there is currently a paucity of study on the usage of educational applications available on the market. Hence, this study attempts to explore Notability, an educational digital tool available in the iOS app store. This study used descriptive analysis to describe the idea of Notability and the qualities it provides. This study discovered that using Notability in calculus classes at the tertiary level is effective and provides an active learning environment. Furthermore, Notability provided instructors with the ability to deliver content quickly and effectively, whether synchronous or asynchronously. In addition, the Notability capabilities enable educators to employ technology tools and facilitate paperless classrooms.
