For online students the best “tools” to pack for school are virtual. Here are some great tools to pack for class to make the most out of your current or upcoming classes:

  • Free Graphing Calculator: (for iPad, iPhone, iPod touch)
    Need help with your math homework? If you haven’t already purchased a graphing calculator then give this free app a try.
  • Grades 2: (for iPad, iPhone, iPod touch)
    Track your progress in class so you know where you stand.
  • iStudiez Pro: (for iPad, iPhone, iPod touch)
    For the visual learner that needs to layout their class schedule to stay organized, this is the app for you.
  • Papers: (for iPad, iPhone, iPod touch)
    While as an online learner you won’t be printing out your papers, this app is great in organizing what you’ve written for class. It also comes with eight academic search engines, like JSTOR, Pubmed, and Web of Science. 
  • USB Disk: (for iPad, iPhone, iPod touch)
    A really cool app for keeping all your docs together on your mobile device without having to carry around a USB drive with your work.
