Andybridgeeng 5 Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 I have three kids, the oldest of which is going into the 7th grade next year. I think she's at an age where I need to start showing her how to use Evernote to be more productive at school. I've seen a few articles on how to show kids how to set up an account, but I haven't seen anything on how to take them to the next step. How do I start teaching her how to create notebooks, tag files, etc, etc... Thanks ahead of time for any help, Link to comment

You could start with an example. Create a notebook of family records and share it with her. Also, don't go crazy with notebooks - one shared notebook and use tags for organization Link to comment

I want her to see how to use it to focus in on what assingments she needs to do and when. I want the homework to be a shared folder, but might let her create another folder to save other things in that she's working on. However, I'm planning on giving her free reign with that notebook.

There's a benefit for you - you get to see what's happening with her I also see a benefit for her; sometimes kids need a little persuasion to accept new things Link to comment

He is particular about his organizing but once he comes up with a system I will share for sure. Link to comment
Candid 167 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 It helps to have purpose. Mine did debate which requires a lot of organization. The ability to web clip in Evernote made it a natural tool. Link to comment
