With so many people either going back to school soon or already being back, I thought I’d help out and offer some resources that I’ve found useful. Also this will probably be forever a work in progress.
Apps:
- Quizlet – Make flashcards and test yourself where- and whenever
- 30/30 – Sets you an automatic 30 minute timer for each task in a list
- Evernote – Everyone’s probably heard of this, but it enables you to keep your notes in ‘the cloud’ so that you can access them at any time
- Calm – Teaches you calm, which can be very helpful when stressing over school
Websites:
- 8tracks – (Also an app) Allows you to browse playlists by tags, that have been created by other people. I recommend trying the #study tag
- Coffitivity – (Also an app) Plays coffeshop sounds. For those of you who can’t work when it’s too quiet.
- TED – Lots of smart people talk about important things. This website is gold.
