Hello - I need some advice. My students have been writing short book reviews/summaries of the books they read and we're keeping them in a big notebook. But that's unwieldy and not very useful. So I want to go electronic, and have them write them (or the older kids will type them up) in a database or spreadsheet that we can then reference. That way, kids can easily see what their buddies recommend, other books by the same authors that kids have liked and so forth.
What should we use - a database or a spreadsheet? Excel? Something else? We have excel for free, but I can't really find a free database. It has to be something most kids can use easily, so I don't end up doing all the typing! I figure first they'll type up something, then I'll have them type it in. We can link it to my webpage, too, so they can use it from home or the public library. Your thoughts?
