Taking Notes

In class we had to watch a video and takes notes on our mobile devices. We were given the option to use different apps to take notes such as Evernote, Skitch, LucidChart or Conceptboard.
I used my ipad and downloaded Skitch. It was slightly complicated, considering that I have 5 year olds in my classroom. The good thing about this app is that you can draw and scribble instead of actually typing the notes.  By using a mobil devices children with be able to save the information they created and share with others. Its very important as a teacher to investigate the difference between apps, some might be easier for the children to use, and if its easy for them to manipulate the app and understand the information they are given it will be easier for them to collaborate in different activities.
