Abstract
From planning to implementation of an online or face-to-face course, there are many different ways you can manage a project of this size. Organization and communication are crucial to the success of course design when working in a team. This session will focus on two technology tools, Trello and Evernote, which can be utilized to enhance communication, organization and manage course design projects. These tools can help when more than one faculty member is creating the course or when working with an instructional designer. The tools are free, easy to use and run on both a PC and mobile devices. Examples will be showcased on how both tools can be used to support communication and track progress, set a timeline, create task lists, assign responsibilities and keep projects organized and moving forward.
