Web Tools for the Organized Student
We could use those around our house. My kids always start out the year with crisp binders, everything in its place inside, and plenty of pens and pencils. But one month flows into the next, and organization can slip.
Lifehacker has 10 Top Back to School Tips that are good for high school and college students. They range from a textbook deals finder (BookFinder.com), a bibliography maker (OttoBib), LitSum online literature summaries and study guides, and some nice apps for sharing class notes.
If you’ve got a Mac, Desktop Organizer Schoolhouse 2 looks very intuitive, offering a great way to put all class assignments, tasks, grades and more in one place.
The Stu.dicio.us notetaking site allows students to take, share, and find notes with friends, connect with Facebook friends, and keep track of dates.
Notely, a web-based student organizer, looks really helpful and easy to use, too. It helps you keep track of class notes, to-do lists, schedules, friends, and bookmarks.
