5 Good Time Management and Productivity Apps for Teachers

February 12, 2015
Maintaining focus in a world permeated with all kinds of digital distractions becomes a real challenge. Ironically enough, this same technology that distracts us can be used to fight off distraction. There are now several productivity and time management apps that you can use on your iPad to help you better ration your time and control how you spend it. Those sporadic 5-minute intervals in which you check your social media notifications become hours when added up at the end of the day. Being aware of how much time we spend doing things is the first and most insistent step towards a better time management and ultimately an enhanced productivity. To this end, I am sharing with you some of the best timer apps to use to track your work and manage your time.
