Using Todoist for Task Management - 1 views

  •  
    A review of one of the latest PM tools available, Todoist. Recommended by the author as an effective tool for managing tasks and projects. May not necessarily be great for teams though, it seems to be more of a personal task manager.

    Asana is the shared task list for your team. The place to plan, organize & stay in sync. Free for up to 30 team menbers.
  •  
    This looks like a great way to keep a project team organized and informed. The tutorial was helpful and gave a nice overview of the system. Free is also a wonderful feature!
  •  
    For a simple, light Project Management tool, Asana worked great to keep a list of tasks and when they were completed.

Trello- Your entire project, in a single glance - 4 views

  •  
    This is a task management web application based on agile methodology. It has a great visual and clean user interface which makes it easy for anyone to understand and use. The features of Trello are easy to use, such as the drag and drop of tasks/cards. This can be easily used for agile requirements gathering as well.

    I love the idea of this! It's so much better than post-it note reminders and provides so much clarity from initiation to completion and all the steps in between. Thanks!
  •  
    And it's Free! I like the clean look of the software. I might give this a go for my upcoming move. Thanks for posting.
  •  
    The cards really remind me of the Scrum model.

Podio - Awesome Project Management system - 0 views

  •  
    A very flexible Project Management system. Podio allows you to add your projects and include individual deliverables, tasks, deadlines, Project Manager's, and comment on projects as they are completed. It also allows you to chat with other team members and provide access to clients so they can always see the progress of the project. Google Docs and other collaborative services can also be connected.

ScrumDesk Project Management - 1 views

  •  
    This is an online scrum project management tool for teams to manage agile projects. Features interactive task board, free download for up to 5 users, an iphone app that gives portability to your scrum management, live help chat and a resourceful blog. If you are a scrum manager, this tool is worth checking out due to its portability and support features.
  •  
    This tool seems very helpful. Thank you for sharing it. I really like that it has an iphone app that seems to be a key factor in these newer tools. I think that the live chat and blog is something unique about the tools as well, so thank you for pointing those features out as well.
  •  
    Great looking tool, and moderately-priced for small businesses. I'd like to learn more about SCRUM! and besides that, it's just a cool term!

MS Project - 0 views

  •  
    Although our class has already discussed MS Project, I didn't notice it on our resource list here. It is a great addition to MS Products, such as SharePoint. Teams can manage their parts of projects in SharePoint and add their smaller tasks as needed. Unfortunately it is still something feared and underused. Another disadvantaged is that users must have PCs to. Use it and to view the plans

SharePoint - 1 views

  •  
    Sharepoint is a great project management tool, most especially for eLearning. Our online department utilizes it to manages tasks and build online resources for the department. It's a great place to share files and also comment on those files. It has discussion boards and announcement boards. Users can view files and edit them with versioning.
  •  
    I agree that SharePoint is a great collaboration tool, although it's nice to have someone around who is an expert with using it. Sometimes it can be a little hard to handle. My favorite thing about SharePoint is that you can set up a workflow where a project manager can approve all document updates and new content before it goes live on the site. The manager can even leave comments to help the person revamp their submission. It's a great cloud-based collaboration and information management tool!
  •  
    I agree, Melissa - it is a great tool but a bit cumbersome. We have a Sharepoint SME in our office who is working on revamping all of our sites. I am hoping it will make our teams use their sites to their fuller potential. If you have a content management plan, it is fantastic - but it can spiral out of control very quickly!

How Long Does it Take? Estimation Methods for Developing ELearning - 6 views

  •  
    Helpful article with formulas for figuring out how much time it takes to develop eLearning.
  •  
    This is defiantly a tool I need. I don't have enough experience for development estimates. This resource provides realistic guidelines for making these types of estimates.
  •  
    I loved the task & time chart. It was very specific and helpful. Thank You!

eLearning Project Management 101 - 5 views

  •  
    This is an extensive article in the form of a presentation about eLearning Project Management. It has some great charts and graphs showing the compromises needed such as the image showing the compromise between time, quality, and money.
  •  
    Hi Naomi -- great addition. I especially like the section about common pitfalls. Were there any other accompanying materials to this like a video or paper?

Zoho Projects - 1 views

  •  
    This is a web based project management tool that functions similarly to Smartsheet. There are a lot of bells and whistles, and it seems to be priced affordably starting at $20 a month. You can then pick and choose add on features for nominal pricing - choosing what you want and not having to pay for features you may not use. Managers can list milestones, tasks, subtasks, generate Gantt charts and resource charts, communicate using wikis, chats and forums and collaborate with others synchronously or asynchronously. Another neat feature is this cloud hosted technology integrates with Googledocs, Google calendar and gmail. This tool seems intuitive and offers many features worthy of looking into.

Evernote - 2 views

  •  
    Perhaps this is an obvious post, but I still run across people who don't have a searchable, organized or unorganized online notebook, notepad, or repository of anything and all things you want to remember or keep track of. I've used it for smaller projects, to contain all of the lengthy articulations that are then hyperlinked to more formal Word documents or Excel charts. It's a phenomenally useful tool.

    I agree, there aren't a whole lot of tools out there to stay organized like Evernote. I use MS One Note for the same type of folder organizing and also for passwords etc.
  •  
    On the surface and quick glance, Evernote is like Pinterest but for your life :-) I am going to have to try it and see if it keeps me a little more organized!
  •  
    I need a tool like this. How long was the learning curve? Do you have any tips for getting started? Pitfalls? Thanks.
  •  
    I love Evernote because it's accessible from several mobile devices. I especially like their app (I'm using Android), because it's easy to use and fast. You could add multiple people to the account and share checklists, wiki-like notes pages, and calendar items. I'm not sure it would be ideal for huge projects with many parts, but it would be perfect for organizing a small collaboration or just for organizing your own work.
  •  
    Michael, Thanks for sharing this app and your experience with it. This tool sounds just like the tool I need to track and remember all my pending tasks.

Easy Chain (Critical Chain Project Management-CCPM) - 1 views

  •  
    Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM) is an alternate method of planning and managing projects with an emphasis on the resources required to execute project tasks rather than upon what the traditional WBS encapsulates.
  •  
    This was interesting! I liked all of the statistics about why projects fail. Being new to all this, it gives me further insight on structuring projects.
  •  
    Wow, it is hard to believe how many different methodologies there are out there! This one seems really different. I can see how it would be suited for some types of projects, like those with a tangible end product, but I wonder how well it would work with eLearning?

Welcome to AbstractSpoon Software - 1 views

  •  
    I've used this simple To Do list program for several years. It includes a task list, a calendar view and a Gantt chart. Probably not something to use with enormous complicated projects, but I use it for a lot of different things. It is a free utility that runs from an executable rather than installing a full program which makes it easy to give it a test run.

The Project Management Game - 3 views

  •  
    The object of The Project Management Game is to assign the best staff to particular tasks and complete your project on-time and under budget. This is definitely not Call of Duty, but it's free. Here's a more realistic PM game, but you have to purchase: http://www.sharkworldgame.nl/
