The lives of students, teachers and scientists consist of many diverse tasks and obligations: courses, internships, scientific work, grant applications, reports, meetings, business trips and more. How to manage to do everything efficiently, on time, and at the same time not suffer from stress and overwork? I don’t have a definite answer to this question, but I know several programs that can help keep things and time under control. We'll talk about free time and to-do planners Rainlendar And Wunderlist, as well as project designers XMind And GanttProject.

Plan your activities and events in Rainlendar

The main idea is to coordinate projects over time and visualize them: which project follows which, combine similar projects into one semantic block, create dependencies between them, set deadlines for implementation. The program will be useful for most graduate students and scientists, as it not only makes it easy to track the status of projects, but also demonstrates plans and progress in work meetings and presentations.

Conclusion

Thus, we have reviewed four free programs for managing your affairs and time. Rainlendar is an excellent planner and calendar that always hangs on your computer desktop. To solve collective problems, use Wunderlist. If the project is at the development stage, XMind will help organize a brainstorming session and bring all the goals, objectives and components of the project together. And the GanttProject program will help coordinate and plan all your projects in accordance with priorities and available time.

I hope the article was useful. If you have any questions regarding the programs, ask in the comments. It will also be interesting to know what programs you use. That's all for me, thanks for your attention!
