Benefits of Evernote

          One thing I liked about Evernote was it was easy to takes notes in. You didn’t need paper if u had an app like this. This helps students stay organized. There isn’t a possibility to lose whatever you working on. Also if you didn’t like taking notes you could record what was being said. Later you could play this to yourself instead of reading notes. This ability gives the student more time to listen. That lessens the possibility of the student from not hearing something because of concentrating on writing done the last thing that was said before.
          
         I could only find one limitation/problem with Evernote. Evernote is not available for students without proper technology. The stuff students do in Evernote is useless if they have no access to a computer or other equipment. The activities did are useless if the student get to them. A student cant rely on Evernote knowing they cant get to it in certain environments. This person would be better off with paper. This allows them to have the info they need. They can have paper any and everywhere.

           I have one suggestion for Evernote. My suggestion is that you should be able to connect with other users. Two users should be able to share files with one another if they choose to. Other then that the app is great. Using this app has many advantages. It helps a lot for school. I also use this app for raps. It keeps me from losing raps. It also keeps my raps organized.

Benefits of iPads

          There were many benefits to having iPads in class. One was the ability to start the assignment we were doing immediately. There was no need to pull out pen or paper. The iPads were ready to use as soon as you got into class, so by the time the bell rung you should have an iPad on your desk ready to work. Another was the saving of resources. We rarely needed paper or pencil throughout the year. This left us more materials to use for other classes. This saves money for students from buying more supplies.

          They were few problems with having ipads in class. One was the distraction they cause. Students can now roam the Internet for things not important. This causes the student not to pay attention. Another problem is the access to sparknotes. Instead of answering questions with their own thoughts, students use sparknotes. This prevents the teacher from seeing how some students think. Some students have good thoughts, and this prevents them from sharing them.

           

I think they school district should have more iPads. This helps the student get work done easier and faster. Some students don’t have the acquired technology to get work done at home. Having an iPad to take home saves these students time. They now wouldn’t have to go to the library just for an assignment. Also apps could widen the creativity of the students for certain projects. Another advantage of students having iPads to take home is the students having less things to carry home. Some workbooks are downloadable. This leaves them with the choice of carrying some heavy materials home.
