New Semester Prep Week (2/5) - "Why Checklists Work"



Readers,

The Profhacker blog is famous for a wealth of wonderful posts focused on teaching, technology, and productivity tips. Recently, Natalie Houston (one of the ProfHacker writers), wrote a great piece titled "Why Checklists Work". 


Based on the book, The Checklist Manifesto, this post was very informative for professors who strive to become more productive in the fall semester. This was VERY exciting for me, because I use checklists on a daily basis!

In her post, she focuses on the following:

1 - Two Kinds of Checklists

*Read-Do

*Do-Confirm

2 - Creating Your Checklist

*Keep it simple.

*Make it usable.

*Try it out and edit as necessary.
