Knetwit, on-line note sharing service
Have you ever looked at your notes from a class and wondered “What?” Perhaps someone else took better notes or just explained the material better.
As the semester winds down and final exams loom just over the horizon, the time might be right to learn more about Knetwit, the on-line note-sharing service. Knetwit’s headquarters are located right here in Chattanooga, and the company has been sponsoring events on campus throughout the semester.
Knetwit gives students and faculty members access to notes and resources from universities around the world. www.Knetwit.com allows faculty members and students to share notes and study tools, providing new avenues to understand information. Additionally, Knetwit recently launched a “Study Group” feature that allows users to study online via group chat interface and shared group study notes. Knetwit is not a replacement for research or class attendance, and not a source for projects and papers. It’s simply an on-line study tool.
The service is completely free, but by using the site and contributing to its knowledge base you can earn money.
Knetwit has been featured in many national news outlets, including BusinessWeek, Inside Higher Ed, AOL news, and The Chronicle of Higher Education’s Wired Campus.
Learn more about taking advantage of Knetwit’s services or getting paid for uploading your notes by visiting www.Knetwit.com and watch for more campus events sponsored by Knetwit.
