In this week's modules, we are covering academic software tools and web evaluations. Two academic software tools that I am familiar with that I would implement in the classroom is Grammarly and Evernote. Both academic software I did not know about until college but I believe it would have helped me in high school if I knew either or. Grammarly is a software that helps with grammar and citations for essay writing that could be used in various classes such as English or Social Studies. Especially specific Advance Placement (AP) high school courses that are mostly essay-based such as AP Language or AP World History. Evernote is academic software that synchronizes your notes together to keep in an organized sense of creating notes. This is very useful because organized test-taking can help with exams or tests for the subject being learned in class. As a teacher, Evernote could also help me in lesson planning and being organized with staying on top of the academic calendar. On our semester Twitter assignment, I have been doing weekly Tweets and keeping up with educators accounts. The hardest thing for me is knowing what post just because I am too busy looking up information from other resources and do not want to sound redundant.
Check out my comments for Alexis and Madison!
I'm very interested in looking into evernote and grammarly as classroom resources!
