my school essentials

as i am finishing my second year and earning my associates degree here are a few things that i could not live without in school.

color coding classes - i do this for canvas, my assignment sheet, planners, notebooks, anything so i can keep everything organized

tasks for canvas - adds rings for assignments per class and the rings fill as you complete assignments. gives me a sense of accomplishment.

better canvas - adds upcoming assignments under your class cards in canvas. you can also change the font for canvas and how many assignments show up. super quick and easy to see what I have due.

master assignment list - i create one of these every semester, once i get the syllabi for my classes. once i put them all in and color code them by the same colors i used in canvas, i then sort them by due date. i also include a checkbox so that once i finish it i can click it and it shows me it was done.

ipad and apple pencil - i LOVE my ipad and pencil. i take notes on my ipad as i can pull them up in my computer easily and can import assignments/readings so i am able to complete them or annotate them. i have the apple pencil 2nd gen and i just recently bought this case for it as it is too thin for me to use without it.

goodnotes - i have the 5th edition and it was the best purchase i made. i use it everyday for school as i can jot down notes quickly. i sometimes import text so i can annotate it but what i love most is that i can import pictures, create drawings/diagrams, and take notes how i normally would on paper. sometimes i use the text feature and type which i then use my own handwriting font (see previous posts to see how to make your own).
