While researching, a new note for every source could be created to include the appropriate citation, pictures of excerpts from paper resources, screenshots from web resources, and a summary to explain how the content will be used in the research. An Evernote research notebook could be created and shared with the teacher at the beginning of the process. Students could use Evernote in their English or History class as a research journal, effectively replacing the traditional process of archiving research on notecards. Teachers can then share the notebook with individual students or post a public link to the notebook on their website or blog. Additionally, any files used in class can be inserted into a notebook to create a daily log of the class. Teachers could also integrate their iPad and Evernote into their daily process by snapping pictures of the chalk or dry erase board as well as student work. Further, by integrating tagging within their notes, students could tag their notes with the chapter, concept, vocabulary or even level of understanding with a scheme such as, “mastered”, “developing”, or “needs work.” As a follow up assignment, students can then type short explanations or reflections of the problem solving process that they used with those problems. Periodically (during or at the end of the class) students can snap pictures of their work to drop into their Evernote math notebook. Students can use a combination of dry erase boards and paper to complete work in class.
Below are six approaches to using Evernote in the classroom to improve organization, promote reflection, and help students capture their process and thinking.
Whether being used in a Math, English, Foreign Language or Art class, by combining the capacity to type, insert images, annotate, and record audio, students can integrate their iPad with Evernote in a number of unique ways.
