The website’s slogan is “Remember Everything”, priding itself on integration with numerous apps and devices to ensure the user that they can search their digital notebooks and find anything and everything they need to. I used this myself in high school, and I utilized it quite a bit! It’s really a great digital upgrade to the classic physical notebook.Įvernote is a minimal yet powerful digital notebook. Things like research, checklists, recording lectures or interviews, or simply taking notes are possible examples of student uses. Students can use this app to take notes on anything, during anything, and organize them more effectively. The app has great tablet support, so jotting notes with a stylus is no big deal. There are multicolored tabs for different sections, the ability to write and draw anywhere on the page, and all the traditional word-processing features Microsoft Word users are accustomed to. It is extremely similar to a physical, Five Star brand notebook. OneNote is a digital notebook app, part of the Microsoft Office Suite. Therefore, this Tech Toolkit is a digital notebook face-off! We’ll look at the pros and cons of each, and see how both could be useful in a school setting.

So I couldn’t decide between these two apps (for reasons I’m about to explain), but I also didn’t think it was worth two separate blog posts.
