Mac also has a built in split screen :) Just hover over the 3rd button at the top left (the maximise one, next to close screen and minimise) and you can tile two apps next to each other

This was so helpful, thank you! I would love to hear your thoughts on balancing online classes/work with mental health and well-being right now, or how to study/work when you have very low energy or are mentally overwhelmed

Mac also has a built-in split-screen function, if you hold the green "full screen" button in the corner, it will split your screen and you can assign an app to each side.

For Mac users, there's actually a split-screen like option if you click Window in the toolbar at the top of the screen. It'll ask if you want to tile the window to the left or to the right of the screen. This has helped me a lot with reading online texts and taking notes.

From experience in the last month (uni is online 100%): If some tasks can be done on paper (exercices, summaries, buy physical books), do it! I appreciate it so much, it gives a break to your eyes. Switching from the computer feels like a completely new task, changing activities while still studying... :) Good luck everyone, and it is okay to struggle at the moment I think

On a mac, if you just hold down on the expand button on a window (3rd green button), it will allow you to do split screen. Just make sure you have both windows open!

That's what makes it easy.Your video really helped me for studying.My grades increased and I've got straight A's in all subjects. Thank u soo much...😃😄💖💖

This is very helpful, thank you. Do you mind telling the app you used for scheduling in the video?

For us the schedule stayed the same the semester started later but otherwise classes usually stuck with the normal timetable
