Students want learning to be cool. Textbooks, 3 inch 3 ring binders, overstuffed backpacks, and pink leopard striped hole punchers are NOT cool (ok, maybe there's a few students who like leopard print everything, but it's definitely a FEW).
Evernote helps to make learning cool, and simple. Evernote allows students to capture anything, access it anywhere, and find things easily. Students can snap a photo to help explain angles for Math class, save a dissection PDF for Science, clip a website for a current event project in Social Studies, and record a video reciting your poem for Language Arts, all on a cellphone with the help of Evernote. Students finally have a legitimate reason for their cellphone in class.
Since Evernote works with Notebooks, students can save notes for each class to keep it all organized. Click a few buttons and you can share your notebook with the teacher, classmates, or group members.
No need for large backpacks full of supplies, notebooks filled with paper, or lockers filled with textbooks. Evernote allows you to save everything you need and access it wherever you are. With a powerful search feature, Evernote enables you to find what you need quickly by searching all of your notes, PDF's, and even photos for text and handwritten entries.
Now, you don't have to spend all your time remembering to bring your work to school, getting it lost in the shuffle between locker and classroom, and forgetting to turn it in to the teacher. All of this can be done within Evernote and the ability to share Notebooks.
