Basic guide to using Evernote in a Lesson
Evernote:
Student & Teacher Use:
Handwritten Notes: Students can still have them cann or take snapshot of notes and then they will have it digitally
Notebooks: Create your own notebooks for your notes and creations
Portfolios: Students can use Evernote as a space to be self-award, show growth, and provide a holistic view of learning
(accounts have a 13 age limit, but schools do work around this with parent permission and thanks to google with the email +#, to protect students )
Student owned: Students own and manage, in and out of school and they are responsible for archiving, the teacher is just the coach on the sidelines.
Self Reflection: Students can use photo, audio, and text to reflect on science experiments, how their learning has changed, or critically anaylzing a piece of art, etc.
Reflections of work:
-
Remember: describe what you did
-
Identify the important part
(What was important to you about today?) -
Put it Together - What does this remind you of? What kind of connection can you make between this learning experinece and something else you know?
-
Pick it Apart
-

What Is Evernote’s Approach to Information Collected From Children?
Evernote complies with the US Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”), which requires us to notify and obtain consent from a parent or guardian before we collect, use and disclose the personal information of children who are under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 years of age without such consent, and if we learn that we have inadvertently done so, we will promptly delete it.
