Publisher's Synopsis
Creative productivity doesn't just help your students ace "the test." It equips them to ace life.
Technology gives us the freedom and ability to create and consume more today than at any other point in history. That means that, as teachers, administrators, students--heck, as humans--we stay busy.
Keeping track of time, data, and ideas, not to mention assignments, can sometimes seem impossible. And if you struggle with organization and efficiency, just imagine how much more your students may be struggling to keep up with life's daily demands.
