What’s It Like? Notability helps students take notes they’ll want to review, revisit, and actively use. If there’s a chart in the textbook they want to reference quickly, they can snap a picture and add it to their notes. If a concept is better explained by drawing a picture, they can do it right there, too. On a single page of notes, students can type, write, draw, highlight, record audio, cut, paste, and even insert content captured from websites.

Price: $3

Grades: 6-12

Pros: With multiple note-taking, sharing, and organization options, this is a great tool for app-enabled note-taking.

Cons: Some features are trickier to use than others, and those great audio files can get big.

Bottom line: An excellent tool that lets students make their notes thorough and useful in the way that best suits their learning styles and abilities.
