So Many Applications, So Little Time

May 3rd, 2008  Tagged , , , ,

This is overwhelming and there’s just too much out there. Everything looks good plus useful. Personally, I’m a one stop shopper.  Since, I’m a big fan of Google, I looked at Google Notebook. The idea of having one place for notes will provide students, no matter their learning styles, with a chance to stay on top of their work. As they do research for a paper or an assignment, they can use Notebook to store their links, comments, notes, etc. They can use this at home, school, or wherever they happen to be. The best, they can use Notebook on their cell phone so they can just jot down a comment or a thought about a paper and then resume their activities.
Backpackit was pretty cool too. I could see using this in place of a wiki as it seems to be more visual and possibly less cluttered.

    I know the feeling of not enough time! Google Notebook is an awesome tool especially for those students who are disorganized and lose their papers often. Plus its accessible from any location.

    I have not experienced Google Notebook, but I am a fan of the other tools they have. Google Scholar and Google Books are two of my current favorites. I will have to check out Notebook. It may be what I need next.
