Over the last few months, mobile computing via iPad and now iPhone has become a more frequent occurrence in my day-to-day work between the variety of meetings and the plethora of possible locations for those meetings. While the app Pages worked well for some basic word processing, the clunky extra steps to transfer the document either via iTunes or via iWork.com quickly led me to use Evernote. The seamless syncing of notes across platforms makes it way easier to utilize both in and out of the office. Here are a few resources I’ve learned along the way to make this a wickedly robust notetaking resource.
- Evernote for Students: The Ultimate Research Tool – Education Series
- Provides info on Web Clipping (aka taking snapshots of parts of a webpage and including that as a note)
- How to create searchable notes from books using Evernote and your smartphone
- Here’s an example of a set of notes I took to integrating typed and book photographed notes – in my note, I can search “scientific integrity” and get highlights in my typing and in the image
