  • Teach Kids. Teach kids how to use the scanner and mobile devices right away.
  • Use Evernote Online for Writing. Kids can type text directly into Evernote. It has a text editor. Instead of using word, or Google docs, or their Ubuntu account, they can type directly into Evernote. This way you can also (as an advisor) have access to ongoing work.

    Useful advice on the how-tos of managing student evernote accounts.  I would like to see the Trillum reflection rubric.  Maybe we can use it as a jumping off place.  I also think that Evernote is one of several potential platforms, and it's important to keep in mind that Rob is working with elementary school age students.   Cool info about the lexmark scanner as a key tool in his classroom.

Webinar Slideshow now available | Evernote as Portfolio - 1 views

  • I use Evernote both for myself and students. For my personal use, I clip and store articles / papers/ images related to my MA, for further analysis.
  • For teaching, I use Evernote to create lessons, feedback and homework. I teach English as a second language 90 % online via Skype, mainly on a one to one basis. In oder to use the lesson time optimally with the student i.e. more student-centric, I send activities that I have created and stored in Evernote via mail that the students have to prepare beforehand (similar to the ‘Flipped Classroom’ pedagogy).
  • I find I can provide better all-round support by using Evernote recordings in combination with text to give feedback after each lesson.

  • The beauty of this is that it doesn’t matter what level of English the student has i.e. with beginnings I can provide short aural translations in Swiss-German/ German if necessary, so they can continue with work on their own. With higher levels I use it for dictation, analyzing their pronunciation, training speaking skills etc, sometimes in combination with audio online tools like Voxopop.
  • Where possible I pair up students and get them to collaborate on activities using Evernote, often incorporating other digital tools or community platforms. They then send their work to me to be discussed in the lesson.

How to Organize Evernote for Maximum Efficiency | Michael Hyatt - 1 views

  • It is tempting to tag every note with a several tags. However, I broke myself of that habit once I realized that Evernote indexes every word in every note. So if you have a great quote on “purpose,” for example, you don’t need to tag the note with “purpose,” so long as the word appears in the note. This only adds more clutter. The key is to remember that less is more.
