Planbook at Mac App Store analyse

Using Planbook has made lesson plan writing so simple and quick. I used to spend hours writing lessons, especially if my schedule changed unexpectedly. Bumping and yanking lessons in Planbook saves time. Jeff Hellman provides the fastest response to questions Ive ever encountered for ANYTHING! I use it on my Mac, then upload using Dropbox to access it from other devices. It works wonderfully on my iPad as well. I use my iPad at work so I dont have to print out pages and pages of plans. If I need a sub, I just upload that days lesson onto our substitute finder website. Would highly recommend Planbook if you want to reclaim your life from hours of lesson planning.

I do not understand this app. I have read all the reviews, and I thought it would be great. There is nothing spectacular about it, and right now it is frozen. Maybe it needs more instruction to get me to the cool parts? I dont know. What I do know, is that I was using a free program that allowed me to look up standards, and it would insert them for me and was very easy to use. I think I will go back to it. This is too complicated or too simple, I am not sure which.

For a teacher who is in several classrooms a day this is an excellent resource. All of the required information about each lesson is attached to the lesson in plan book, so there is no lost time looking for things that were left in the last classroom or such. Also, everything used in the daily lessons are published online (if you choose) so all students are responsible for their own work and if they miss a day, they can take care of it themselves. The creator of the software is readily available for help. The only thing I wish that was better was the unit planning area, but Hellman knows about this, so I am anticipating this will be better in one of the free future upgrades. Update: Working in a school that could go to review. What I do with this program is what is being expected for success during the review. Thanks Jeff.

Unfortunatly I find this program hard to use. My lesson times keep on reverting to the wrong time. I cannot find a way to print my lesson plan. Overall, I am not very happy.

I am a music teacher and have been using planbook for months now and I love it. Each update has improved and simplified the application. Thank You Hellmansoft. I highly reccomend this app for all teachers.

I hate planning because I hate formatting and hand-writing my plans. This software has it all. Organized, perfect, and QUICK and EASY. I type my plans at home. Save to the web and BOOM open at work. Excellent software here.

I am thrilled by this latest version! I teach at a university. I started using Planbook at the beginning of last semester. I found it useful, but there were a few things I had trouble with. I emailed the developer and he was very quick to respond to my questions. He kept tweaking the app and making it better. I am now preparing for a new semester and am delighted with the latest version, especially the way it looks, feels and behaves on my iPad. I create my lessons on my MacBook but use my iPad in class because it is lighter and easier to carry around. One feature I especially wanted was the ability to make notes directly on my plan during class as I was teaching. (I teach five sections of the same class, so by the end of the day I may not remember something that happened in one section but not another.) With this latest version, that is going to be soooo easy! THANK YOU, JEFF HELLMAN!!!
