I have become an avid user of Evernote from everything for notes teachers give me in the hallway to shopping lists from my wife. It can be accessed from iPhone, Android and the web. But for my students I think they need something that looks like their course schedule.
So today I noticed that NotAnotherHistoryTeacher had a reference to MyHomework. So I checked it out! It, as you can see from the video, allows students to set up their classes with pertinent information (subject, place, etc.) as well as giving them a calendar to set the information (although I am still waiting for any group - even Evernote - to attach to it an alarm (can anyone help me) so, for example, the homework would go off to remind the kids (although I do use Remind101 to do this, but it doesn't come from their calendars).
At any rate, MyHomework can be accessed from an iPhone and an Android and when the kids are home they can look at it on their laptops. The video shows one how to set up the app on one's phone. There is also a blog - probably a feature more for the teachers, but it is nice for students to look at when setting up an account.
