Five Best Educational Apps for Students

Evernote

Available on anything from iPads to laptops running Windows, Evernote brings the twenty year old dream of the paperless office into reality. Once you begin to organize your notes with Evernote’s remarkably intuitive interface you will never go back to ring binders and file blocks. Linking Evernote with Safari will improve your experience even further, allowing you to ‘clip’ web pages, and even recordings of your lectures, to your corresponding notes. Evernote is a free software, and so perfect for students on a tight budget. Although there is a Premium version for more intensive users most students will be more than content with the features available with the free version. Never be without your notes again with the synchronization feature provided, allowing notes to be available between your computer’s Evernote package and your iPhone or iPad.

Goodreader

With the ability to type text or add hand-written notes directly onto the document, to add moveable sticky-notes, to draw shapes and arrows and even to highlight important areas of text, you really couldn’t ask for more in your pdf reader. The icing on the cake is that Goodreader will open any kind of file, from word document to video file, eliminating the need for a plethora of apps to open the myriad different file types available. Coming in at just over £3, this powerful file reader is a bargain buy!
