I have been using Evernote as a means to capture quote, either as I read them in my textbooks or as I create them when teaching mr students. I find the tags assist in cataloguing information for future reference. However, I am excited to see what other options are available to educators. Thank you Evernote!

I LOVE EVERNOTE! I use it for so many things, but my most recent use is for store receipts, and it’s great! I have always had trouble keeping up with the darned things, especially when I need to return something, can never find it. Now I take a picture of the receipt with my I-Phone and immediately send it to Evernote!
Voila! All receipts now easily accessible and with me at all times, whether by I-Phone, I-Pad or PC.
Thank you Evernote, you are brilliant!

Recently, some of my students have been unable to come to school as there has been a road closure in Big Sur due to a landslide. Some of these students may be unable to come to school for weeks, if not months. Evernote’s shared folder system has been very useful in that it gives students a portal through which they can access class notes, worksheets, PPTs, and labs. Nice work.

Linda, you can use an credit card. That’s entirely up to you.

Since it takes a credit card to sign up for it, can I use the school’s card? My husband doesn’t want me to use ours.

As a principal, I have fallen in love with Evernote. I use it to document teacher observations on my iPhone; as soon as I am finished, I return to the office and complete my notes on my MacBook. I then email the file to my assistant who attaches it to the physical observation form and passes it on to the teacher.
I have also started using it to take notes during meetings of all types. The easy and accurate search feature makes it so simple to access these notes later. I love the way notes appear when they are emailed as well.
We are in the process of building a new high school, and I find myself snapping pictures of furniture, design features, etc. as I come across them. I tag them and share them with out leadership team.

We are currently using Evernote shared folders to research and track the implementation of iPads into school environments. Love it thus far!

I was just getting caught up on my podcasts and listened to several of Evernote podcasts. I must comment about your desktop application. I have had Evernote for my iPhone for a while and when your desktop application came out I really increased my useage. I use a MacBook, iPhone, iPad and two different iMac desktops and I love being able to get to my notes from anywhere! I like the desktop app to be able to edit and clean up the notes and messages.
By the sound of the podcast, you guys are doing great! I am so glad to see an application smoothly operate from mobile to desktop. There are not too many apps that do that.
Congratulations on your success with the App store as well.
Thanks,
Robin Martin

I was there at the NAIS Conference and I really liked your booth. The way you set it up showed a lot about who you are and what you are trying to accomplish. It brought me to your Internet site

I use Evernote all the time as a teacher and student. I teach high school physics, present at educational conferences, teach professional development, and am working on my second Master’s degree. I don’t know where I would be without Evernote.

I use it for meeting notes, class notes, lesson plans, resources, clipping articles and resources from the internet, sharing notes with students and colleagues, and so much more. I access it from the web at school, on my Palm Pre+ via the Evernote App, and at home using the Windows Download version (keeping a backup of all my data too).

I even write about how Evernote is great for education:
