 * Digital Literacy for Teachers**
 * Definition:**

**Personal:** Conferences/workshops - take notes, record audio, take images - tag (keywords) all these notes and then file them in NOTEBOOKS (folders). Make sure you set up the folders, the first time (rather than having lots of notes Professional learning records/hobbies.
 * Research**
 * [|Evernote:]**

**Professional:**
 * 1) Keep a notebook on each child (or class) and store evidence records such as images, examples of work, handwriting etc. Perfect for parent teacher interviews or meetings about progress of student. Also keep audio examples of assessment (great for running records).
 * 2) Manage your planning and curriculum (shared folders or documents with others)- Evernote Free only gives you the ability to share folders/notes but (not edit).
