Target Audience
Teachers will learn how to use a digital personal management system to organize their digital lives and systemize their lesson planning.
Instructional Coaches and Tech Directors can use a similar system to organize the information that they share with teachers.
Background
Imagine how much simpler lesson planning would be if you could access every piece of material for every lesson you've ever created.
Consider what it would be like if you could retrieve any activity you've ever learned and easily match it with a corresponding technology tool.

All of this, and more, is possible when you learn how to build your second teacher brain with Notion.
