Productivity and organization technologies (EdTech)

Productivity and organization technologies help people stay on track with meeting their goals, performing tasks, and staying organized.

Productivity technologies are particularly useful in educational products as they help participants stay focused, organize their thoughts and work, and help with goal setting and achievement.

Common productivity and organization technologies include:

• Calendars and schedules
• To-do lists, planning helpers, and prioritizing tasks in lists
• Project management organization, such as assigning people to tasks and breaking up big tasks into smaller tasks
• Notifications, reminders, and nudges (especially through phone/tablet popup notifications, emails, and text messages)
• Notetaking and idea capture to help people not forget things when they pop up
• Reflection and helping people change course when things need a shift
• Automation of tasks and processes
