Math Type - You would need to copy and paste from Word. It's a little expensive for a single user license, but our math teachers really like it. http://www.dessci.com/en/products/mathtype/ 2. Office 2007 has a toolbar similar to Math Type. I'm not sure how sophisticated it is (we don't have users on 2007 on my campus yet - just OneNote 2007 w/Office 2003). Neither require tablets. http://blogs.msdn.com/microsoft_office_word/archive/2006/10/04/Equations-in-Word-2007.aspx Unfortunately, I don't know how to get the toolbars up in OneNote of if it's possible yet, but I know copy & paste works. Tomas,

I found this blog entry when looking for a way to use my notebook pc to take notes in math and science classes. The difference between me and your 7th graders is that I'm a university freshman, so my needs for mathematical formulas might be a little more advanced... However, my problem is that I haven't found a way of typing down my equations in OneNote fast enough. How do you do it? Is it possible without a tablet PC? (I already have a notebook, and I don't like the idea of having to buy another one just for math notes...) Hi Tami!
