Time Management Tools
1. Google Calendar
Everything I need to do is there. I can attached files. Google Calendar helps me coordinate my course and communicate with students and parents. It helps students who are absent as well. I use Google Calendar both personally and professionally.
2. Google Keep
Google Keep helps me capture ideas in visual or list form. I can check off things as I complete them, and it works nicely with Google Calendar. I can also share lists and work collaborative with peers. This tool helps me stay focused in both my personal and professional life.
3. Stay Focused
It's easy to get distracted, especially when my list of tasks is overwhelming. An App like Stay Focused helps me to block the things that draw my attention away the most. I think this would a great professional tool to introduce to students to use as well.
4. Silence Notifications
Notifications of social media are a time kill, especially if I am using my personal phone for work. Something as easy as turning off the notifications helps productivity. It's also nice to take a break personally for always staring at my device.
5. List.ly
I love making lists. I always feel more productive when I can mark off tasks I have completed. It helps to set realistic goals as well. Instead of thinking, I'm going to do everything today; I'm able to be more realistic and prioritize the things I will complete that day. List.ly again is an application that works well, both professionally and personally.
