We've written a
lot about email in the course of talking about other technology
tools, but I want to draw your attention to two very helpful posts
from the above blog all about Outlook. Managing communication and
related tasks more efficiently can help you keep better records, be
more attentive to student needs, and leave you more time for teaching
and research. Sign me up!
First, check out
this double-topic post on
managing how Outlook suggests email addresses and on how use the task
manager. Did you know you can change how Outlook
suggests email addresses as you type the contact? You can tell
Outlook to remove certain entities from the drop-down list, to search
your contacts (instead of the global address book) first, and even
turn off suggestions all together. Likewise, if you're a user of the
task tracking within Outlook, this post tells you how to create and
edit the tasks resulting from an email - and how to do so with and
without the related attachments.
Second, have you
ever wanted to create threaded email conversations on your desktop /
laptop version of Outlook (the way the iPhone, iPad, and Gmail do by
default)? You can! Likewise, if you're a meticulous user of email
folders, there's a way to copy and file one email in multiple folders
at once. Now you can easily organize those emails that cover a host
of issues! Details, how-to, and screen shots are all in the Reflections on
Teaching and Learning blog post.
