=Online Note Taking Applications=


 * Evernote**
 * EVALUATION: Right from the start something I noticed that I really think students would like is the ability to use Evernote on your computer, phone, and tablet. Students would have to ability to open notes, web pages, files, and images from any of these devices. Evernote also allows users to share notes and collaborate with other students. I would require students to use Evernote when working on large projects because, not only is it free, but whether they were at home or at school the information they have stored would always be available to them. This application was very easy to use which is probably another reason it is so popular.


 * UberNote**
 * EVALUATION: Not only does UberNote act as a web-based note application, but it can also help students keep track of due dates for future homework assignments, tests, and essays. UberNote also offers a search function so students can easily find information in their notes. While this application does not seem to be available on anything other than computers which is a drawback, there is no limit to the amount of space available. This application was also quite simple to use.


 * Zoho**
 * EVALUATION: Zoho seems to work similarly to Google Docs because it allows the creator to share a whole book, page, or just part of a page by granting read/write permission. In addition to sharing and writing notes, users can also record video and audio clips directly into their notebooks. Students could also use Skype to discuss notes, video clips, etc. However, like UberNote, Zoho is not yet available on phones. I found this application the most difficult to navigate because it had so many different tools and options that it was a bit intimidating.
