ed-tech-tools-gradesSo you went ambiguous with the elective classes and now your goals seem impossible to realize? Every student has faced the same situation.

The worst thing you could do in such situation is give up and make your peace with “OK” grades in the end. You should explore the educational technology tools that will help you get better grades without getting nervous about the workload. We know that you don’t have time to waste on online research at this point, so we made an effort to collect all useful tools in one place.

1. WordCounter

Speaking of essay writing, there is a common problem that students encounter when completing their own papers: sticking within the word count limits. The word counters on your usual word processors are not always precise. This word count tool by NinjaEssays will help you determine the accurate number of words and symbols in your document, but will also help you find out how many times you have used your “habit words.” The best part is that it’s completely free.

2. My Study Life        

Managing your schedule is more complicated than it sounds. When you are a student, you have many classes, exams, homework, friends, social events… in fewer words: you have too many activities to fit into 24 hours. My Study Life is an online planner for students that makes their lives more manageable.

3. Desmos

How about a tool that will make math simpler and easier to understand? This website enables you to explore transformations, evaluate equations, plot tables of data, graph functions, and much more. Desmos is much more than an online calculator; it has great features and a user-friendly interface that will help you explore math in a whole new way.

4. VideoNot.es

As a student of the digital age, you probably take few online classes and watch video lectures. If that’s the case, then you absolutely need to start using VideoNot.es – a concept that will help you take notes while following online lectures. This is not your usual note-taking app; it assigns time stamps to the notes that take you to the relevant parts of the video lecture. That will save you a lot of time and make your notes much clearer.

Online tools can help you get better grades

No matter how many times you read and reread the notes and textbooks, it’s nearly impossible to memorize all that information and manage to write all term papers at the same time if you rely solely on yourself. Even superheroes need their sidekicks, so you shouldn’t avoid using the right tools and websites that will make your goals easier to reach.
