DAYTON,
Ohio, Aug. 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Studying just
got easier! Five Star®, a leader in student-focused
school products, recently added to its product line and updated the
Five Star Study App that combines pen and paper notes with digital
organization and studying to include compatibility with new select
Five Star academic planners and storage & organization items
like folders, binders and expanding files.
Studying just got easier! Five Star®
recently added to its product line and updated the Five Star Study
App.
Students have been loving the ability to turn their
handwritten notes into flashcards and organize them in digital
folders. Now, with new app features and functionality with
additional Five Star items, students can continue to up their study
and organization game.
Prioritize important tasks, provide descriptions, and check off
completed assignments to get a clearer overview of the day when the
app is paired with select Five Star planners. Simply scan the
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 in a snap! Handwritten notes and handouts in
compatible Five Star notetaking products and folders can also be
scanned, turned into digital flashcards and linked to Google Drive
for sharing with classmates and on the go access by mobile device.
Additional search function and subfolder capabilities, set to
launch this summer, will continue to enhance the finding and
categorizing of notes.
"Teachers see the enduring power of paper and taking handwritten
notes to remember key information in the classroom," said
Grace Szabo, Brand Manager – School
Brands, ACCO Brands. "The Five Star Study App merges this
traditional study approach with the digital lifestyle of today's
students, allowing them to access written classroom notes and
handouts while on the move and at their convenience. The additional
benefit of being able to sync their planner to the app allows
students to not only study, but also organize their assignments
like a pro."
To scan handwritten notes in the app, students fully shade in
the triangles on app-compatible notetaking products, make sure the
paper is smooth, and then square up the page by positioning the
corner markers on the page within the brackets on their device's
screen. For Five Star folders, binders and expanding files,
handouts are inserted into the clearview front pocket, lined up
within allotted brackets and then scanned. Five Star Planner pages
are scanned within page brackets to sync with their phone.
The app is available for download in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
