App Smackdown- Trello

 The app Trello is a project management and organizational tool. You can visually organize your projects or tasks educationally and/or professionally. The app uses a board system which represents a project or a task. The lists on each board are to organize and track objectives within the project or task. Another beneficial attribute is that you can tag teammates, so your boards can be collaborative. Using Trello, as a nurse in a psychology unit, will be beneficial by planning all of my major tasks visually. For example if I have an important meeting coming up, I can make a Trello board, and include team members. With having a collaborative board of a certain task, I can show my team members what I am doing and what I have done. 

Secondly, using Trello now throughout college could be very beneficial since I am very visual when it comes to planning out my coursework. I can make a board for each of my classes. In each board I can make tasks cards and checklists to make sure that I don’t miss assignments throughout the semester, especially with online classes. Additionally, the boards allow you to set due dates, reminders, and even location of events. For example if I had a meeting with one of my professors on campus, I can set the location, time, and add any comments or questions to the post so that I don’t forget what I have to ask him/her. 

In conclusion this app could be very beneficial to anyone with a hefty schedule. This app will keep you on your toes and will help you stay organized. Organization will push you closer and closer to your goals!
