How does it work?

Step 1 : Installation

Install the Amanote plugin on your LMS. In most cases, it only requires a few clicks, and we are always available at moodle@amanote.com if you have any question.

Step 2 : Learners take notes

Amanote is a quick-win solution: All compatible course materials (PDF, PowerPoint, ePub, video, ect.) on your LMS become automatically annotable by learners. The impact on the learning experience is immediate.

   

 
 

During the note-taking, the learner can:

  • Write enriched text next to the each page of the document;
  • Add annotations to the document;
  • Insert images, formulas, drawings into its notes;
  • Highlight text in the document;
  • Export its notes along with the document in several formats (PDF, DOCX);
  • Mark a page as understood or not understood.
  • And much more.
It doesn't require any interaction from the part of the teachers. You can thus have an impact on your learners' learning experience just by installing the plugin.

Step 3: Save or export

Learners can save and view all their notes in Amanote or export them.

How to install

In order for the module to work properly, please check that the following requirements are met on your Moodle site:

Potential privacy issues

Course materials (PDFs) do not pass through our servers, they stay on Moodle. When a user opens a resource in Amanote for the first time, Amanote asks him/her to access his/her First Name, Last Name and Email. These data are essential for the proper functioning of Amanote. If you don't want this behaviour, you can enable the anonymous mode and no data will be sent to our server. However, you will lose all collaborative features. The access token and its expiration are also passed to the app to authenticate the user and to communicate with the Moodle's web services. This allows the app to act on the user's behalf. https://www.iubenda.com/privacy-policy/8179069/full-legal

    How do I setup allowing the user to take notes from a video. PDF file show the icon next to them, but with a YouTube video -- nothing.
