In those cases,they even completed in-class example problems on their own, despite missing the instructor’soral presentation and some instructor annotations in Private Ink.OutcomesEvaluation of the findings is still under way, plus the course will be taught using the technologyin the fall of 2008, so the findings reported in this study are preliminary. The effectiveness oflearning using pen-based technology with DyKnow was assessed in four different ways: (a)student surveys, (b) institute assessment, (c) student performance on tests, and (d) instructorreflection.

The results are presented by separating out students who werepoor performers in the course overall with a grade of B- or below, approximately 10% of thepopulation. The question posed in doing the analysis was whether students who performedrelatively poorly in the course had a significant difference in prior team experience or attitudetowards collaborative work compared to the other students.

The need fornanotechnology education in the US has also been raised in the literature1. However, anundergraduate degree program in nanotechnology is currently still not commonly available in USuniversities, although some research universities with extensive research expertise have startedoffering various forms of nanotechnology undergraduate curricula2,3.

Complex geometry and relatively small features can make for a difficultalignment process.
