Classmint

Classmint  https://www.classmint.com uses the Cornell note taking system to make useful notes and studyguides.  The video below explains system.



Classroom idea:  I have been looking for a way  to increase the return  on student created  outlines  on chapters often assigned for Social Studies classes. This tool could turn the notes into  study guides.

Widbook

      http://widbook.com/   ( Thanks again to the Master Richard Byrne )

Here is a tool  that lets you find books that might interest you.   But  maybe better than  that is  the ability to  write and publish your own  ebook.

Classroom idea:  Students  prepare  short tutorials on  a  biology process.  After teacher assessment of the tutorials, they are put together as a  study guide.
