Like many other webinars I have watched in the Moodle Mooc course which I did - MM7, the one about Trello was the introduction to an interesting tool on line, free and  useful:  https://trello.com/.
The presenter made a clear explanation of its use and showed how it could work. It is a system that enables you to organize your work in a collaborative way.  

             What  Trello is

                        -   a   collaboration and management  tool that organizes  projects into teams
                -   a   board
You need to register in order to work on it: and then you can see how to organize the board.
                -   create a board and then a list
                -   people who are in the list need to have registered and have  an account too 

The following picture is a screenshot of the presentation online- the tool can be used with any device:

   It is also possible to have a link with Google Calendar for planning activities

The tool seems to be nice to use but I realize that it requires a good internet connection and people who are willing to work online. Ideally it could be an interesting tool for working with adults. I like the idea of the boards but in my teaching situation I could not work with my students and I need a tool which is simpler to use and does not require any registration. But I will try to see how it works, maybe I could plan an activity my students could work on.
