If you are a student studying at a university, college, or school, you should agree that productivity is an essential part of your life. Every second student at least once faced many tasks that need to be completed in a short period right when you need to prepare for the exam. That can reduce your efficiency and productivity.

And you know how technology impacts modern education. Nowadays, there are many helpful tools, tools for college students. As we live in a world full of new technologies, you do not need to turn off your phone to concentrate.

On the contrary, you should use modern apps to help you work better and be more productive. These apps will be helpful for you even if you are online studying or for teachers. There are some basic productivity tools:

Forest

This app will help you focus on work or study without distraction by using gamification. So you grow a “productivity forest” (bushes are short tasks, and the trees are long ones). And while plants are growing, you must not leave the application on your mobile or go from the desktop to “banned” sites, which you have banned yourself. That can be social networks, Netflix, or Youtube. If you lose focus or get distracted – the plant will die. If not, you will earn points for completing tasks, and for 2,500 points, you can plant a real tree – Forest designers support tree planting. So, you can become more productive and help nature by working. Proved by many happy users that this method truly works.
