pen tablet for use with onenote

[treaclesone]

Hi there, I am supply teaching until the summer and we will be in homeschool for the forseeable future (not UK). We are using Teams and I am trying to get up to speed on OneNote etc. Can someone recommend me a pen tablet to use for correcting my homework. At the moment I am downloading, printing, correcting, photographing, uploading and it is such a waste of time!!! I can't really justify upgrading to a new laptop, so I need an add-on to what I have already. I will be correcting students of English (as a foreign language) either in word docs or photos of jotters. Thanks !

I bought this - price fluctuates though:

www.amazon.co.uk/Drawing-Digital-Signature-Graphics-Battery-free/dp/B078Y52K1M/ref=sr_1_4?dchild=1&crid=27IH2WYJM0UCF&keywords=xp+pen&sprefix=xp+pen%2Caps%2C173&tag=mumsnetforu03-21&qid=1614606947&sr=8-4

I have the slightly bigger one:

Yep @treaclesone - watch the prices, because sometimes MrsH's is cheaper than the small one etc. I got the small one because it was on a deal and was £20. Looks like the bigger one is randomly cheaper at the minute.

ahh thank you both. I had been looking at amazon over here and had seen the x pen one but wanted to check it till do what I need it to do! Both look good pricewise! Thx

You get much better at using it with practice - I mark on onenote now, and write on the lines as if I was writing with a real pen. Initially I was rubbish and my hand writing was awful, but it's got there now.

@RuleWithAWoodenFoot can I check I am getting this OK - you open the homework in onenote and add your corrections / comments on the pen tablet and those corrections appear in your handwriting when the pupil opens their homework? (Techno idiot alert )

And this will save all my reams of printing and reuploading ...?

That is what happens :) its like magic

Thanks @MrsHamlet and @RuleWithAWoodenFoot - I like a bit of magic. You've been a great help . I'm going for the G640.

You can also write on photos easily in the same way. It just took me about 30 seconds to mark a piece of writing and send it back.

Yoohoo - having done a few more rounds of download - correct - photograph - email - upload palaver this morning, all I can say is roll on Friday (amazon delivery due then!)
