Note taking Methods and Software

(1/3) > >>

mahesh2k:
I'm sure you're aware of some of the note taking methods like Cornell etc. I'm focusing entirely on students and note taking programs which are helpful for them. Both web based and desktop. I know we have big review of text editors but i'm in search of note taking softwares like evernote(which can be used for Cornell note taking method).

Any suggestion for note taking softwares ?

Pagico: www.pagico.com

AceText: www.acetext.com

Micorsoft's OneNote which I am really warming to

timns:
By the way perhaps worth mentioning that Pagico tries to help you adhere to some of the GTD principles.

mahesh2k, are you aware of DC's earlier mega-thread General brainstorming for Note-taking software, started by superboyac?  34 pages and counting.

Paul Keith:
+1 for OneNote. I am not a fan of it but for vague education tools, the ones I've often heard are:

Diigo for collaboration/web annotation and OneNote for notetaking.

There's also the Live Scribe Pen.

In reality - it's just hard to imagine what students would want. There's no study on it and it often times could fall down to what the university or the service would offer for free.

Some others are:

...and of course some of the more staple "advanced" one of a kind notetakers: TiddlyWiki, Tree Sheets, Sticky Notes software, InfoQube, Microsoft DreamSpark, Bibliographical software like Citavi, Noteliner, PersonalBrain, MindManager, Outliner4d, Rainlendar, WriteMonkey, Pigeonhole, Anki, CintaNotes (Evernote Clone)...but I end up dropping those except for the last four so I can't really speak for how someone with a heavier load would be productive from these.

The few ones I use that can be substantiated to something close to educational are Goalscape and Compendium and both of those aren't popular with majority of notetakers.

Compendium because it's used by NASA and Goalscape because it's used by someone who competes in athletics.

For websites, I assume some of these might be of use:

I assume he is. That's why he's making a filtered topic out of that mega-thread. At least this is how I interpret this thread.
