![]() ![]() I especially like the fact that it now supports PowerPoints, so I don’t have to convert every single powerpoint into a PDF before I can mark on it in Notability. It’s very easy to import notes from other applications, like Blackboard into Notability to take notes. The app also allows me to organize my notes into categories and folders which is helpful for organizing everything by subject and semester. It prevents me from having to carry around a stack of G2 colored pens everywhere I go. It has several options for tip size, so it’s easy to get it to a thickness that you’re used to and that you want to use. It has a convenient magnifier that essentially blows up an area of the page so that you can write on it without it looking awkwardly big or like a kindergartner with crayons. I’m a huge fan of taking notes by hand and being able to color code important information, vocabulary words and the like. I like this app because it provides me with essentially everything I need to take notes. It’s available for $1.99 in the iTunes app store. Notability has served me well this school year. I am going to start with the one I use for taking notes in class. Over the next several weeks, I’m going to review some of the most popular apps that students use in class. I found several apps recommended by several websites, each with their pros and cons. I know I’m pretty nerdy, but hey, an iPad is lighter than carrying around several notebooks. When I first got my iPad, I looked all over the Internet for the best apps to help with school. I could probably get away with carrying only my iPad to class, and I have no doubt that’s probably the case for the majority of other iPad and tablet users. I use my iPad in the majority of my classes, especially in the ones that don’t involve computers. IPads have become very popular for taking notes during lectures. ![]() Monica Lake | Lariat PhotographerBy Linda Nguyen ![]()
