Student life: How to make more work done on the go
Read this post in Italian.
Getting together with friends for a study session is one of the best tips for exams preparation. You may have questions that they have the answers to and vice versa and as long as you make sure you stay focused on the topic for an agreed amount of time, this can be one of the most effective ways to challenge yourself.
Between university lessons, work, sport and entertainment, sometimes organizing study session with friends can be very tricky when you have a busy schedule. All you need is the right tool to keep all your notes, presentations, assignments, projects updates and conversations with class mates together in one place. So, why not Quokky!?
In Quokky you can store notes and assignments for easy access, just creating a collection dedicated to each class. It will be very easy to find what you need for lessons, exams and group projects.
It can also be a useful tool in managing projects and presentations. You can use it to submit the visual components of class presentations, for instance. It’s a huge time saver, as it otherwise takes several minutes to log in of your account to access presentations, notes and so on.
With Quokky, you could be stuck with a desktop and still be able to access your work from anywhere. You can access your files not only from the devices synced with your account, but also from Quokky’s website. That means you can access your files from any computer, even university laptops. You won’t have to remember to bring along an USB stick ever again!
Quokky is an incredibly useful App for moving files between computers, or keeping a copy of your most important files in the cloud. However, that isn’t all Quokky is great for; it is also great for helping students keep their files as mobile as they are and share them easily with class mates and professors.
Usually class conversations are scattered across emails, meetings, chats, notes and text messages. For this reason, one of the most convenient features of Quokky is that you can share your files and comments regarding a class with everyone using a simple and direct chat.
You have just to create a group chat for your class and share materials (PowerPoints, hand-outs, reading assignments, whatever) and messages with your class mates. Also professors can join it and communicate with the class in case of change of location or time, absence or any kind of information regarding the class. If someone of your mates doesn’t want to use Quokky, he will receive messages or attachments via email or sms anyway.
The best part about Quokky as a collaborative tool, is that there is no need to have endless email chains back and forth in order to keep each other updated on the latest going-ons of the project. With Quokky, all that your collaborators need to do is send via chat the most recent version of the file.
Do you have any other ways of keeping your files with you on the move? Let us know by leaving a comment!
