IWB – The Interactive Whiteboard

The concept of Interactive Whiteboard is a bit older concept that was developed earlier as an aid for smaller learning groups and meetings where the goal was using the tool for fast presentation. It is more than a simple projector – it is a separate computer that works alone and has touchpads that you use to perform various actions like image presentation, text manipulation, and other functions as well. Although the tool was firstly used by the teachers, the tool is used widely by students at the forums, group discussions, etc. The direct involvement makes the tool perfect for small presentations where the goal is to interact and offer creative solutions and examples. Students use this instead of laptops or PCs, as it is easier to handle this IWB.

Smart Typewriter

If there is one thing that all students will like and have a lot of benefits throughout their studies, then it is this Smart Typewriter that helps students to type faster and more accurately. Unlike the other word-processing apps, Smart Typewriter disables all other software and allows this one to use the full screen and save all the information in a cloud drive via Wi-Fi. The device has a fantastic battery that can last for hours, so this is the perfect solution for students who like to study/write outdoor. The electronic paper screen incorporates the gray-scale background and eliminates all the distractions, so the student can stay focused. It also features auto-correct function, which means that the AI follows your words and letters and corrects any misspelled words.

It is one of the best tools for quick-sketches, illustrations and small diagrams that students must include in their presentations. It is a great replacement for Adobe Photoshop, which is very expensive to buy.

Lino Sticky Notes

We all know that we sometimes simply forget to do something, especially when it comes to writing. The developers created the tool that offers you simple UX where you can organize your notes in the way you want. The simple drag-and-drop function allows you to store information on the note (which is huge) and access it anytime you want. It features a mini-calendar so you could stay organized. The best tool for students who write a lot and want to include all the important things in the text.

Slack

Slack is widely used at the moment, although it was used only by developers initially. You can organize your own session with other students so you could talk about the upcoming writing assignment. Instead of the email communication, Slack allows you to communicate directly without any need to wait for an email to arrive. You can talk to other writers using this app to discuss the ideas and opinions.

You can write down all the important tips, writing suggestions and topic-related questions on the flashcards and give these out to your colleagues. Therefore, the idea is to write on these cards to help other students to learn and progress. It is one of those apps that you do not like in the beginning, but the more you use it, the more you like it.

ProWritingAid

Writing can be hard and students often get afraid of the writing assignments due to many things, including poor grammar and spelling.
