Mediabird is a contributed code activity module that allows context based collaborative note taking in Moodle.

==Features==
*Students can take notes related to any page in a Moodle course.
*They can note anything that comes up in by writing text, drag and drop content or search notes of other students.
*All notes can be annotated, tagged and shared. This way, problems in understanding course material can be solved quickly and collaboratively.

Using Mediabird Study Notes is divided into two steps: Taking notes and reviewing them later on.

===Taking notes on any page===

** Invite friends using the '''Invite friends''' button
* Click on '''Share note folder'''
* Click on '''Create'''

===Accepting invitations and finding shared notes===

[[Image:MediabirdSearch.png|right|Search notes button]]
You can find shared notes using the Search button

==Setup==
The basic setup is very simple.
* Download the [http://download.moodle.org/download.php/packages/studynotes_package.zip Mediabird Study Notes packages].
* Extract the archive into the moodle folder of your installation.
>>>> rename the directory /mod/studynotes/lang/en-utf8 into /mod/studynotes/lang/en <<<<
* Log in to Moodle as admin and go to the admin page.
* The activity should set itself up now.
* After the installation, add the Mediabird Study Notes activity to a course.

===Setting up in-place note taking (recommended)===
If you want to take notes while studying, you can enable the in-place note taking function that displays an icon on all pages of a course. Clicking on that icon displays the Mediabird notepad and allows for taking notes in-place. These can be reviewed in the activity later on.

'''Note:''' You need to adjust your theme as outlined below to enable this feature.

===Setting up the equation editor===
* Install a LaTeX distribution (see below for more specific instructions)
* Make sure the dvipng helper application is installed
* Make sure you have installed the LaTeX packages ''AMSFonts'', ''AMSMath'', ''xypic''
* Locate ''dvipng'' and ''latex'' executables and specify their paths in the activity settings in '''the admin panel'''

===Windows===
* Install MikTeX and check for xypic, everything else should be included in the default setup
* Both dvipng.exe and latex.exe usually are located in ''C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.7\miktex\bin'' or similar

===Linux (Debian/Ubuntu)===
* Install packages texlive, texlive-pictures and dvipng
* The paths will usually be /usr/bin/dvipng and /usr/bin/latex

==Theme adjustments for in-place note taking==
===Using the included theme===
If you don't mind about the theme you use, you may easily
* go to ''Appearance'' in the admin panel
* select ''Theme Selector'' and choose ''standardmediabird''

'''Note:''' If the theme does not appear in the list, make sure you've extracted it from the [http://download.moodle.org/download.php/packages/studynotes_package.zip Mediabird Study Notes packages] into the theme folder of your Moodle installation.

===Using a custom theme===
If you are using your own theme, all you need to add is the following line in the file header.html from your theme folder
<code php>
<?php
include_once($CFG->dirroot.'/mod/studynotes/ext/overlay_snippet.php');
?>
</code>
after the line
<code html4strict><div class="navbar clearfix"></code>
which is located near the middle of the file.

==Prerequisites==

Moodle 1.8.9 or 1.9.2+ and PHP 5.2+
