Student iPad Resources


s

In our efforts to streamline our communication as well as collaborate and share with each other, the apps listed below are chosen to help you in your classes/studies.

You were notified that all 'email' communication between you and your teacher will be handled with your school email ONLY. Your school email consists of your Student ID (ten numbers) in the front of @chadronschools.net. If you are having issues with finding your student id you are always welcome to ask Mrs. Hinrichs, Mrs. Larson, or Mrs. Berry. If you are having issues getting in to your email please ask Mr. Paopao or Mr. Mittleider.

The following apps shown in the picture below, if not already, you will need to download/install from the App Store. The apps are completely FREE and are very easy to use. If you have questions in regards to the app please make sure to ask your teachers.

From right to left: Google Drive, Note Anytime, Evernote, StudyBlue
Google Drive
Because we are a GAFE (Google Apps For Education) district we rely heavily on the use of this application. With this app simple documents and spreadsheets can be created and shared amongst teachers and students. The app primarily serves as a sharing and collaboration place for the majority of your teachers, so they will be expecting you to have this app downloaded/installed onto your iPad. 
Note Anytime
Made popular by your very own Mr. Bach, this app will serve you best for note taking, annotating/editing on top of .pdf's, sketching, etc. Because of its versatility along with its ease of use, this go to app will benefit you greatly.
Evernote
Like Note Anytime, this app also serves the purpose of taking notes, saving and sharing of notes as well as the ability to record audio and/or video as notes. This app develops your archiving and organizational skills.
StudyBlue
This simple app serves the purpose of your study buddy. Teachers will create and share audio or visual flashcards that you can use to study with. You can also create your own flashcards that you can share with others to help you study for that very important test/quiz.
