A new University lecture-note exchange is helping students nationwide improve their grades and earn money at the same time, simply by sharing lecture notes which can be downloaded by other students as additional learning and revision material
CARLSBAD, Calif., July 28, 2009 — A new University lecture-note exchange website is helping students nationwide improve their grades and earn money from their old lecture notes.
ShareNotes.com (http://www.sharenotes.com) presents students from University and College campuses across the U.S. with the opportunity to share lecture notes and materials, in return for a percentage commission for each download and a variety of rewards for consistent use.
Rewards for uploading include gift certificates ranging in value depending on the quantity and quality of notes that are uploaded, and even an 8GB iPod Touch for those surpassing the required threshold.
Bill Novak, a spokesperson for ShareNotes.com, believes the website will provide students with an invaluable resource, while also presenting a chance to earn students some much-needed cash:
“ShareNotes.com allows students from schools across the U.S. to upload, share and cash-in on their old lecture notes. Most students take notes in class anyway, and by uploading them to ShareNotes.com, individuals can give back to the student community and help their peers with much-needed extra study resources.
“The stereotypical student is scrimping and saving, with money in very short supply. With ShareNotes.com, we’re rewarding students for simply turning up to class, taking notes and uploading them to our site. For very little extra hassle, students can both make money and also help their contemporaries by providing invaluable additional revision materials.”
ShareNotes.com allows students to download notes organized by College and subject for a nominal fee, providing further quality study materials in addition to the materials provided by the student’s own course staff.
The ShareNotes.com blog, at http://blog.sharenotes.com, shows some of the previous recipients of iPods and other prizes, awarded as a result of uploading course notes.
