Maintain a digital notebook with sections
When to use this goal
For students who use a digital notebook app for class notes but end up with one long page, untitled pages, or notes in the wrong class. The student should already type or handwrite notes on the device. Present levels, not grade, decide fit.
- Baseline
- Open the notebook with the student and score it. Ask them to find notes from a lesson last week and time the search.
- Tips
- Screen sharing keeps the check quick. Teachers who push handouts into the notebook make one row easier. Compare with ef-org-004 for paper notebooks.
- Limits
- Apps differ in how sections work; keep rows general. Does not score note content.
