Product Descriptions

NoodleBib is a platform for student research which is anchored in the best practices of academic research and inquiry learning. Known as the most comprehensive and accurate bibliography composer on the Web and always up to date according to the latest editions of the MLA, APA, and Chicago/Turabianstyle guides, the software is designed as a learning and teaching tool, not simply a "machine" that automates the process. Students and teachers receive prompt, personal responses to citation questions. NoodleBib also includesnote-taking and outlining components that enable a researcher, alone or with others, to extract, organize and synthesize information. Members of a research group can collaboratetogether on a project in real-time to take notes, cite and annotate sources, then outline and write a paper. 

From the instructional view, multiple teachers can monitor an individual's contribution to a group project and give in-context feedback that appears on each student's dashboard. NoodleTools has designed a seamless integration with Google Docs to give students a robust online composing space and permits instructors to do paperless evaluation and provide feedback directly on students' work. NoodleBib is a flexible teaching tool which supports both individual learning preferences and a variety of teaching styles.

For full-district licenses (all middle and high schools in the district participating), the 20% discount is applied on top of the variable full-district license discount of 10-40% described on the Web site:
http://www.noodletools.com/tools/subscriptions.php?type=3

Example calculations:

1. One high school with enrollment of 4,500.

    Cost = $450.00 * 0.80 = $360.00/yr

    Note: 0.80 is the 20% LibraryLinkNJ member discount.

2. One elementary school with enrollment of 200.

    Cost = $120.00 * 0.80 = $96.00/yr

    Note: 0.80 is the 20% LibraryLinkNJ member discount.

3. District with 5 high schools (each with enrollment of 2,000), 5 middle schools (each with enrollment of 800), and 12 elementary schools.

    Cost = (($360.00 *5) + ($240.00 * 5)) * 0.70 * 0.80 = $1,680.00/yr

    Note: 0.70 is the 30% district-wide license discount (for a district with 8-15 middle and high schools). 0.80 is the 20% LibraryLinkNJ member discount. Elementary schools are included free with the district-wide license.
