UStart - None of them appealed to me so I just picked one.
I understand it's advantages and certainly can see it's appeal. However, I will not make this a permanent page change.
The only reason an online calendar would be more useful than a handwritten one is that it can send notifications to you for upcoming events or assignment due dates. Also, it can expand days that have a lot more coming up as opposed to days that have less going on.
There are a lot of tools that can be useful in both schools and at home. We've already talked about a majority of them and their usefulness.
As much as I use technology, I am still a technophobe at heart. I much prefer notebooks and pens. I like calendars that are in my hands.
My only concession is my smart phone. I do have sticky notes for keeping track of upcoming dates and keeping track of anything that I need to remember.
