• Resumen

  • The advancement of tablet computer technology has progressed rapidly in the past three years to the point where organic chemistry can be almost completely paperless. Students in one section of organic chemistry were provided iPads equipped with the application Notability to use in lecture to take notes and to use in the laboratory as a laboratory notebook. All laboratory assignments were completed, submitted, graded, and returned to the students electronically. Student feedback about using iPads in class was very positive, with 9-out-of-12 students preferring to use an iPad to take notes rather than the traditional paper and pencil method.
