College Planners, An Essential Tool For Students and Teachers Alike

educationIt has been quite some time since I have been in college, but since I am a teacher, I have never really left the educational world.  I know that life is busy in college for students and teachers alike, and being organized is a compulsory skill that both the educator and learner must have to be successful.  Due dates, term papers, tests, and even social life need to be planned out in advance so that nothing is missed.

I can remember that sinking feeling I felt in college when I realized that I forgot something.  I didn’t do it much (thankfully) because I was generally meticulous in my planning ahead.  I did not have a college planner at my disposal, but in retrospect, I wish I had.  And in this day and age, I know that time can be wasted very easily.  My daughter is only ten, but she could practically live on her personal tablet.  I have to remind her about doing homework and even going to bed.  I am doing my best to instill organizational skills in her at her age, and thankfully her school requires the use of planners.  She is very good at looking at this planner and making sure that she turns everything in on time.  I am pleased by that.

As a blogger, I have discovered the helpful nature of calendars and how they keep me from missing deadlines.  I can assure you that if I ever do go back to school (I probably will one day), I will make it a point to get a planner that will keep me on track.  I know that some people will argue that online and mobile calendars are good enough to take the place of a physical calendar, but I don’t agree.  What happens when the power goes out?  Or what if the internet is down for a few hours?  I have tried to keep an online calendar, and it just seems better to keep a physical planner that I can consult even after the computer gets shut off for the night.
