Teaching with Evernote - 6th and 8th Grade teacher
Kevin Buran talks about how he used Evernote when kids were unable to reach school due to a small natural disaster. He was able to put everything the students needed for class into an Evernote notebook. He then put a link to the notebook into his moodle course.
He used the web clipper to capture bits of pages to add additional information to his notes. These web notes helped add value to what he was teaching about. The best app was on his cell phone, the basic camera. He is able to take pictures and add them to his notes. These can include hand written notes, things on the wall of the classroom and on from there.

Evernote is an amazing company to follow. They have another great app call Skitch. It allows you to annotate an image you have taken with your cell phone and quickly share it. Makes certain images a lot more valuable. If a picture is worth 10,000 words then an image annotated with Skitch is worth about 17,500 words. (I think there was some research on that statistic.)
