Method 2:
Each student sends you an email to a specified notebook with a PDF or image attached
Example “Lab Report #2” notebook, or “Essay #5” notebook
Not private - you give access to this notebook to your students and everyone can see the annotations/feedback on everyone’s work.

iPad is not needed
The use of Evernote Peek requires an iPad.

Personal/Teaching Blogs
How?
Link Evernote account to Postach.io
Create your blog site
Blog directly to your site from Evernote
Detailed instructions are in the workshop notebook tiny.cc/AQPC
Once setup, blogging via Evernote saves a lot of time – no need to log on to a separate site to blog!
After initial setup - no need to use the postach.io site anymore…
Unless you want to change themes, enable comments, delete your site, etc.
Do not expect all the bells and whistles from Blogger, Wordpress, etc…
Postach.io (Canadian!) won the Evernote Devcup in 2013 –improvements/updates are definitely to come.
You can search for words Inside an image
In your entire Evernote account
In a specific notebook
In titles
By tags

By date created
Etc…
