Using LeaderTask in the field of education

Any educational institution is a large and complex mechanism managing which requires a lot of resources and funds. It should be noted that the work of structural components of an educational system is directly based on following the schedule, which requires elaborately planned workflows on all levels of the hierarchy from the president of a university to a lab assistant. For example, someone who holds a chair should successfully combine faculty management and tutorship in his work taking into account the peculiarities of education.

In their attempts to make it as easy as possible to plan a day, the Almeza company have developed the LeaderTask organizer that makes it possible to create, organize and sort hierarchic lists of tasks, store and structure information and schedule all kinds of activities. This set of features completely meets the needs of a person employed in the field of education and allows this person to improve the efficiency and results of his work by saving time and effort.

1. Contacts

The position of a professor implies constant communication with the university administration, faculty and students. Usually, data about these groups of contacts is stored in different places and it may be a problem to quickly find information about a certain person. The LeaderTask scheduler offers to solve this problem once and forever with the help of the "Contacts" library. This feature makes it possible to not only organize a contact list, but also link contacts to particular tasks and also make additional attachments to the standard contact information.

2. Categories

A professor must accurately perform all duties listed in the job description. This document contains some compulsory tasks. To use the working hours in the most effective way, it makes sense to divide these tasks into certain groups in order to logically organize workflows according to particular contexts. The LeaderTask organizer is perfect for these purposes. With this program, it is possible to create a list of categories and group tasks according to this list with a couple of mouse moves.

3. Projects

Besides creating the list of routine tasks, a professor is also engaged in scientific research, prepares materials for lectures and keeps and analyzes the documents related to the chair. In order to make the work with information resources effective, the LeaderTask organizer offers the "Projects" tab where you can structure the necessary data stored in any formats and in various places.

4. Priorities

The activities related to a chair in a university may differ in importance and urgency. Usually, a professor has to keep in mind the list of current issues and constantly single out the most relevant and urgent ones. Not only does it take effort and time, it may also lead to making wrong decisions under these stressed conditions. The LeaderTask scheduler can take upon itself highlighting the priority of tasks. All that is necessary for it is to create priorities these tasks may have and just once set them for particular tasks. After that LeaderTask will not only sort tasks by their priority, but also highlight certain priorities to make them more visual.

5. Statuses

From time to time, it is impossible to complete scheduled tasks in time for some reasons that may include just a usual lack of time or some force majeure. That is why it is sometimes necessary to set the "Delayed" or "Canceled" status for some tasks. Statuses like this are included into the standard set of statuses coming with the The LeaderTask organizer. Besides, the scheduler makes it possible to create a custom list of statuses taking into account the peculiarities of a particular job.

6. Filters

The LeaderTask organizer has a flexible filtering tool that makes it possible not only to quickly display information on the current issues (for instance, only today tasks, tasks from a certain category, materials for a certain project), but also create complex filters based on several criteria. Also, it is possible to store these combinations of criteria in LeaderTask in order to use them in future. This way, the head of a department can create a filter showing only the schedule for today or tasks that require immediate attention.

Thus, the LeaderTask organizer is as good as it can be for planning activities in the field of education. Due to the versatility and flexibility of the scheduler, it is easy to adjust it to any needs and to effectively group large amounts of information and tasks throughout a day.
