The Australian Centre for Student Equity and Success acknowledges Indigenous peoples across Australia as the Traditional Owners of the lands on which the nation’s campuses are situated. With a history spanning more than 60,000 years as the original educators, Indigenous peoples hold a unique place in our nation. We recognise the importance of their knowledge and culture, and reflect the principles of participation, equity, and cultural respect in our work. We pay our respects to Elders past, present, and future, and consider it an honour to learn from our Indigenous colleagues, partners, and friends.

You are reading: ADCET webinar — Glean: the 2020 vision for notetaking has arrived

Event information

Glean is a web-based app that is designed for cognition. It has a distraction free and accessible interface that ensures the content is the focus, not the tool. Glean demands the smallest possible amount of attention to scaffold the note taking process. This enables students to independently create more authentic notes that can be integrated into wider study practices. This is more important than ever to assist students manage the current distracting environment that is remote learning.

This presentation will outline the guiding principles to Glean’s development gained from lengthy trials held in 2019. The web app can be used to capture and annotate spoken information from live lectures, streaming lectures, and blended webinar meetings.

Glean is currently freely available for the remainder of the 2020 academic year to allow all students to have access to a note taking technology during these challenging times. The content in this webinar will be of interest to equity practitioners and institution staff working towards a more accessible learning environment within the principles of Universal Design for Learning.
