Volunteer as a Peer Notetaker
How to Get Started
Students who would like to volunteer as notetakers and share their notes with students with disabilities can follow these steps to sign up.
- Click on the Sign Up button above.
- Provide the required information.
- Enter the course registration number (CRN) for each course for which they are taking notes.
- The notetaker will receive an email confirmation that they have been matched/assigned to a course.
- Once the notetaker is matched/assigned, they will receive an email notification with their final sign-up steps. They can then begin uploading notes into the system.
- Notetakers will also receive invitations to the Notetaking Assistance Program Canvas site, where they can access all modules that can be completed if they wish to receive the stipend at the end of the semester. More info regarding stipends below.
Notetaker Stipend Information
$75 (1 class) and $100 (2+ classes):
- Complete all Canvas modules by the deadline date.
- Notes must be uploaded within 1-2 business days of the class period.
- Notes must be legible and in a format accepted by the student.
*Stipend amounts are based on the total number of courses notes were taken for, not per course. For example, if a notetaker took notes in two courses and completed all modules/requirements, they would be eligible for $100 total.*
