Its also great for storing notes on a research project as it collects the Bibliography information about the site you are looking at.

Is It Any Good?

The uses for Evernote seem endless, and as more schools move to BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) or 1:1 technology in classroom initiatives, kids may encounter Evernote more and more. The portability from device to device makes it a handy tool in a world where many kids work on multiple devices. The search function is great for finding specific pieces of stored information, though searching the text within images is hit or miss. Kids may find uses for Evernote in taking and sharing class notes, collaborating on school projects, or saving images of work or experiences.

Did we miss something on diversity?

Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
