PlanbookEdu.com


RH: Matt, Sue, Nancy, Mickie, and probably many others told me about this on line planner and that I should give it a look. I have and I believe it to be a really good program and very easy to use. To be honest I was hesitant at first as the format was not what I was used to. I had been using the CTL layout. After a few days of working with it I have come around. There is a free version but it has some limitations such as not being able to share your plan with others. It has a good print feature as well as the ability to one-click Indiana and Common Core Standards. Not only are you able to share your plan but you can set it up to collaborate with your colleagues. You can also upload files such as handouts and quizzes so you have them at the ready. Another feature that I like is the link feature. For example if you want to schedule a YouTube video you can embed it right on your plan and you are one click away from action.

I posted this to the DMS Tech Place blog but this just may be such an important find that I wanted to post it here as well. Anytime we can find tech tools that help make our jobs go smoother we don't want them to get away. There is a free 14 day premium trial to let you get the feel of it. For me, the premium version is the only way to go. Thanks to my colleagues that talked about cool useful tech tools.
