[CASL-L] Noodletools vs Easy Bib

[Valerie DiLorenzo]

Hello,

My school is making the switch to EasyBib School Edition (not the less
powerful free version) from NoodleTools. I am at a K - 9 school and
NoodleTools just was not working for our population (faculty and students).
Having used both, so far I'm finding that EasyBib is working better at my
school. We only started our subscription in December and I'm working on
training faculty during this spring semester. In my opinion, NoodleTools is
an excellent tool, but has a steeper learning curve.

EasyBib School Edition* does* allow students to share their projects with
faculty and/or classmates. (I give my teachers a hint and have them tell
students to name their projects in a way that the teachers can easily
identify which class a student is in; for example, English_period 5).  I
find that it does an excellent job helping students evaluate sources. I
also love the LearnCite feature. The outline and note card feature looks
and works similarly to NoodleTools feature.

When making these decisions, I always try to look at what's best for my
population, and I'm sure that's what all of you do as well!

Hope this is helpful. Have a good day.
