Juggling tasks and projects can be an arduous task, especially when working in a team and from a distance. An efficient way to approach the challenge and organize the work is through project management software.

We will present Microsoft Planner, part of the Office 365 suite and available free of charge to the University of Ottawa community. This online resource works on all operating systems and available through any web browser, no application download required!

This seminar will focus on how to set up Planner, review some of its many functionalities, and look at how this tool can help you become more efficient in project and task management. We will also look at examples of using Planner for thesis supervision and writing articles.
