Create an action plan/checklist to keep track of deadlines (both self-created and in ManageBac). 

Possible places to keep track of tasks:

• Google Calendar: Google Calendar helps to visualize the timeline of the project. Tasks can be scheduled as events with reminders, making it easier to manage time and avoid delays.

• Google Docs: Using Google Docs helps to create a clear written action plan in list or checklist form.Useful for outlining tasks week by week, and making quick updates.

• Notion: Notion helps combine a to-do list, calendar, and notes in one place (and more!). It supports both planning and reflection, making it useful for documenting the development process. 

• Trello: Trello helps to organize tasks using a digital board format (columns like “To Do,” “Doing,” “Done”). Good for collaboration and progress tracking through checklists and due dates.

• Canva: Offers action plan templates (as examples).

Add pictures/links in your Project Proposal and Presentation as evidence.

Possible things to include in the action plan:

• Tasks

• Deadlines

• Roles 

• Resources needed 

• Roles (if working in a group)

• Status (Completed, In Progress, Not Started)
