EasyBib
EasyBib does the bibliography for you. Not many students are aware of the fact that such an online tool exists. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to try it once and show your bibliography to your professor. Just to be on the safe side – you never know whether they are up to date with the latest formatting style requirements.
CiteMe
CiteMe is a Facebook app that will help you get formatted citations from WorldCat, the world’s largest library catalog.
GradeMate
GradeMate helps you know what final grade you are getting. The app describes itself as “a resource that helps teachers spend less time on administrative tasks and more time with their students”. You simply note all the grades you are getting throughout the class, and the tool will predict the final result. You will also need to put in the value (i.e. percent of the final grade) of each assignment.
SlideRocket
SlideRocket lets you create awesome and professional looking presentations. It has a vast library of the graphic and audio materials. It would be hard to find those on the web. SlideRocket helps you put them into your presentation.
Empressr
Empressr is a yet another tool for creating media-rich presentations. Every online presentation creator has their own set of unique media materials and themes. If you can’t find what you are looking for, it might be smart to use several ones at the same time, and then put the presentations together. While apps can be helpful it is wise not to rely on them all the time. It is better to use them only when it’s really necessary and not every time you need them. Otherwise, you might become too dependent on them and will not be able to do even the simplest things on your own. Just ask yourself what happens if the power goes out? But the power is there for now, and it’s nice to have these time-savers at hand.
