MySchoolNotebook.com is an app for the Google Chrome browser that organizes and shares notes. Students can take notes and organize them by subject or section and share them with friends. The app is designed to integrate both drawings and photos into note-taking, including those taken with an iPhone, and can convert to a PDF file format, should the student decide he or she wants a hard copy. Unlike many helpful apps for smartphones and other portable wireless devices, this program can function even in the absence of an internet signal. In addition to the applications for students, this also gives opportunities for teachers to reach students who may have been absent during important lessons, or to model the kind of note-taking that will help students be successful in their subject. Also, as many teachers are moving their lesson planning into digital form, this app could be used to organize unit planning and links to course resources that would be accessible from multiple locations.
