The Ultimate Virtual Workspace for Students

8 Sep 2022 | ThinkPiece | 0 comments

When students come to university, they must learn a range of software and platforms including UConnect, Studydesk, Panopto, and possibly Mahara or WordPress. For counselling students, none of these mentioned are likely to be regularly used after graduation, and likely to become a historical artifact of learning, rather than a means to continue extending and organising one’s professional life.

As Discipline Lead for Counselling, I wanted an ePortfolio platform that was not limited to one or two purposes. To justify the learning curve, we needed a platform that students would want to use in all their courses, their study, their professional life, and even their home life. Notion.so is versatile, intuitive, simple, and powerful. It will support students’ studies, and their lifelong professional development and productivity.
