Has anyone used or using lesson planning software? I have been looking at different ones for when I start teaching, figured it would help stay organized, and when asked to complete a syllabus and lesson plans for the course I can do it quickly with less stress.

Although some people would say this kind of software is unnecessary, I always like to keep on top of technological advances in the profession. Do you have any links?

Here are a couple that I have already been thinking about. I have downloaded another one for a free trial but I don't care for it.

I'll have to find the others again and add them later. Hope I am not breaking any rules by posting these? Embarassed

Just thought that since everyone says that being a teacher in Mexico is very time consuming if you have to travel by taxi, bus, metro, or all the above, and take care of a family when you get home. It seemed logical to have a software program that can help you keep on top of your classes and stay organized and should be a huge time saver.
The reason why I like them so far is, they let you keep detailed notes on your classes and pupils, even keeping track of each one individually with there needs and progress. The ones I have looked at have lots of cool features and are not that expensive. Oh, and also I have found the best program to learn Spanish so if anyone is interested just PM me, it too is very inexpensive and I have already started using it.
