Note-Taking

To establish note-taking services, arrange an appointment with the DSP&S Director by calling 306.3259

  • Note-taking services will only be provided to a student who has a verified disability and whose disability-related functional limitations prevent the student from taking his/her own notes.
  • Note-taking services are designed to provide assistance to students with disabilities in the classroom.
  • The DSP&S office will provide the student with duplicate note-taking paper (NCR) for each approved class, or make arrangements to have photocopies provided.
  • Students are required to be in class to receive notes from that day unless the absence was disability-related.
  • Students needing these services are requested to either: 
    a. Ask a fellow student in their classes to assist them.
    b. Ask the instructor to announce the need for a note-taker in class.
  • The DSP&S office will assign a note-taker for individuals who are physically unable to take notes or to complete in-class assignments.
  • It is the student's responsibility to notify DSP&S and the professor of the absence as soon as possible so the note-taker can be notified of the cancellation.
  • The student is responsible for informing the DSP&S office whenever changes occur that effect the student's need for note-taking services.
