ASD Middle School Library LibGuide: NoodleTools

NoodleTools is an essential tool that assists you throughout the research process.

Some often overlooked (or unknown) benefits of using NoodleTools include:

• Project sharing features (among students and teachers)

• Direct citations from various databases (such as Gale, JSTOR, EBSCO, and ProQuest)

• Direct links between NoodleTools and your GoogleDoc

• Organizational notecards for all of your research, including optional tags and outlining

• In-text citation advice (so easy to use, it will become a mere matter of cutting and pasting their suggestions)

• Insightful tips and guidance at every step of your research process

Here are four 60-second videos to get you started:

• Create a Project     Create a Citation       Create a Notecard      Write a Notecard

Your teacher might ask you to share your project so they can review your work and provide helpful feedback. They will let you know the name of the Inbox to use for sharing your project.

On the Projects Dashboard, go to the Sharing column and click the plus sign of the project you want to share.

In the window that opens, click on the +Share icon to the right of Share with a Teacher's Inbox. Start typing in the name of the Inbox your teacher shared. The name will auto-complete as you begin to type. Once you see the correct Inbox, select it from the list and click Done.

On the Projects screen, the project you shared will have an inbox icon in the Share column.

When a teacher views your shared project and leaves new comments for you, you will see a notification when you login. A general notification will appear on the left.  Look at your projects to see which one has comments. The tick box next to the comments tells you whether the teacher left you a To-Do task.

 

To share with another student

1. Enter the student's Personal ID (email address).

2. Choose the sharing option:

   • Full Collaborator: Allows the student to add and edit content.

   • Peer Reviewer: Allows the student to comment only.
