  Microsoft note-taking was a little more harder to use but still, a great source to use. 

 Evernote is also a great way to take notes. On the Left side, it has many options to do different things in the app. For example, it offers new posts, shortcuts, notes tasks, tags, notebook, and shares with me. It's almost like the way your emails look. 

 Note-taking was equally as easy as the Google Keep app. It goes straight to the point. It also has cute backgrounds to take your notes. You are able to share notes and you can also create a notebook.

This assessment was really interesting. It was cool seeing how text savvy I really am! I didn't do as well as I thought but I wasn't too bad either. I think they do test skills that people need today but not all the skills. This generation is turning more to smart devices and other social media apps as well.  https://assessment.digitalliteracyassessment.org/results/?id=11138595&code=9d74fff6734c https://assessment.digitalliteracyassessment.org/results/?id=11138609&code=392f9a6db99e https://assessment.digitalliteracyassessment.org/results/?id=11140139&code=326e5d94cecd

 In this Tech Quest, the goal was to read each note-taking class and to see what the benefits of this app are. The note-taking app I decided to go with is called Google Keep. I decided to go with this one because its starts forward especially if you have a Google account. Once I clicked on this account it signed me right in. I did have to go through the hassle of creating an account. On the opening of the page, it has this bar where it says, "Take a note..." Once you click on you write the notes you want to write chick close, and it saves. On the left side their tabs that say note, reminder, edit labels, archive, and trash. It starts to the point you can't even set up reminders on the notes you take!
