The power of handwritten notes combined with
digital studying and organization to enhance student
learning
DAYTON,
Ohio, July 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Five
Star®, a leader in student-focused school products, is
expanding its line of Five Star Study App compatible products to
include wide ruled notebooks, composition books and filler paper to
help meet the study needs of younger students. Now from the first
spelling test to the last college final, students can benefit from
combining the power of paper with digital studying and organization
for academic success throughout their school careers.
Five Star® is expanding its line of Five
Star Study App compatible products.
The Five Star Study App merges the digital lifestyle of today's
student with the traditional classroom approach of pencil and paper
learning that helps digitally native students retain more of what
they are learning from the repetition of writing things down.
Students can then turn handwritten notes into instant digital
flashcards, organize them in digital folders and be able to access
notes and study materials while on the go and at their
convenience.
"The Five Star Study App and its new compatibility with
notetaking products geared toward the younger student mirrors the
approach schools are taking in combining paper learning with
digital tools to enhance the academic experience," said
Grace Szabo, Senior Brand Manager,
Five Star. "From learning the alphabet and numbers to remembering
spelling words and math problems, digital flashcards help students
to study at their convenience and without having to keep track of
printed flashcards."
To scan handwritten notes in the app, students fully shade in
the triangles on Five Star® app-compatible notetaking products next
to important concepts. Make sure the paper is smooth and then
square up the page by positioning the four corner markers on the
page within the brackets on the app's 'scan' screen. The app will
then automatically create digital flashcards from flagged notes and
students or parents can save them by subject to easily find them
later. The Five Star Study App is also compatible with select Five
Star folders, binders and expanding files. Handouts are inserted
into the clearview front pocket, lined up within allotted brackets
on the app screen and then scanned.
Older students with hectic schedules can also prioritize
important tasks, provide detailed task descriptions, and check off
completed assignments to get a clearer overview of the day when the
app is paired with Five Star Student Planners. Simply scan the
compatible planner and sync to the in-app calendar, a phone's
iCal/Google Calendar and the iOS Reminders app to track assignments
and upcoming events.
The app is available for download in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
