"I have a Palm TX and this software is very stable
runs smoothly on system 5. I must say this is a very efficient program and I use
it all the time as a language teacher. If there were more stars on the scale I
would give it that for the outstanding service Tapperware give in support of its
customers. I had a glitch with the software that was entirely my own doing yet
Tapperware not only quickly responded to my query, but followed through with
emails until the problem was resolved in polite and simple instructions that
even I could follow! I would not hesitate in buying any software from this
developer!"

"I have always felt that a PDA would encourage me to
be much more organised - and it never happened. Then I got Lesson Plan and
suddenly found that I knew exactly what I had taught in the previous lesson,
what homework was due and all the other little details that used to slip my
mind. It is so simple to use; I love it!"

"This planner is everything that I could possibly use
as a middle school teacher. It is an adaptable program. You can import standards
and other helpful lesson plan info. This program is very flexible in terms of
making your lesson plans detailed and memorable. I have not had any Palm crashes
and the hot sync operation goes without a hitch."

"I am a Special Educator who has to organize for 18 different learning groups in different subjects. (ie math, reading, spelling, language, and social studies). This software is the best for me because it has a template option. I can point and click my lesson plans in under 20 minutes with little typing. I then print a weekly report for my principal and myself. She's happy and so am I. I was trying to do my lesson planning by hand, and it would take me literally over an hour, and they weren't as detailed as the ones that I do with the Lesson Planner. I would recommend this program to all special educators with a handheld!"

"I've started using this in school this academic year and have found it a real benefit to be able to have lesson plans and timetables available at the touch of a button. With this and [another software] you can keep track of your lessons, students' attainment, attendance, keep note of school events and so forth. The PC conduit makes planning at home and syncing to your handheld a breeze. Excellent piece of software that is making my life a lot easier!"

"Out of the many teaching applications I have tried
on my T5, Lesson Plan is the only one that has been consistently stable and a
joy to use. Although the desktop application looks a little crude it prints
beautifully - enough to satisfy any inspector who might be wondering why you're
not using an official paper planner.... Anybody thinking of developing a new
teaching application could do worse than learn from Lesson Plan how to combine
simplicity and efficiency."

"I've been using Lesson Plan for 2 years now... everyday! My palm is in my pocket and I use Lesson Plan every hour of my work day. I couldn't imagine going back to paper!"

"I've used Lesson Plan since the end of last school year. Wow! What a life saver. I can tweak plans as thoughts occur to me at home, I always have them with me during school and they print out a wonderful lesson plan book style grid to turn in to my principal as well as allowing me to scan the whole week at a glance from my own copy. Plus, all the other teachers are jealous of me. I really love this program and recommend it highly."

"This program does everything it says flawlessly. No system errors or any interruptions, excellent support and a first rate manual. My middle school planning has never been easier. I type my plans on my PC, sync them with my Zire72, edit as needed, and even print a copy. No more carrying around a lesson plan book! I am very new to the handheld arena and this software has been a big part my discovery of how valuable handhelds can be for teachers."

"I love Lesson Plan! Having lesson plans on my Palm the past two weeks has been wonderful! I've updated and improved lesson plans while lying in bed or while walking in the woods. I always know what pages to tell kids to read for make up work regardless of how far I am from my Mac.
I showed Lesson Plan to my Principal yesterday and told him that I've seen some interesting programs for administrator too. He's going out this weekend to pick up a Palm."

"Possibly the best purchase I have made since getting
my TG50 Clie (OS5). This great programme allows me to plan my lessons using
standard templates that I have created and reminds me of where I am next! I am a
manager in a school as well as a teacher and this has really improved my
productivity, it even allows me to print out weekly lesson plans for my
department head. The programme has replaced my paper timetable, planning book
and weekly plan proforma as well as acting as my de facto organiser at school.
In addition the after sales support has been superb, a problem was sorted
quickly and professionally. Recommended by a real hard pressed teacher in the
UK."

"I have had nothing but perfect success with the
program. The 'bump' feature in particular is outstanding. VERY useful software,
especially for me as a computer teacher (classes often being pre-empted for
other activities!) Great job!"

"For more than a month now, I've been using a program that I've found is perfect for an educator like me....
Tapperware has created an application that's an essential tool for the educator. Lesson Plan is not only my most often used application at work, it's also quickly becoming my default datebook program!"

"Excellent program. I have used it all year for my
plans, and it allows me to write as much as I like--unlike a plan book. The
print a week function I find not helpful, but I regularly print the daily plan.
The set-up is easy. One can view the day readily. I love the copy & paste
ability when I overplan!"

"This is an excellent addition to the lesson plan for
the palm. You can edit your lessons and print them too. Tech support is
awesome!!! I had trouble installing (due to some issues on my computer) and tech
support gave me full attention for as long as needed to solve the problem,
prompt e-mails etc.! Great Job!"

"This software is what every teacher needs to keep up with technology. I have only had it for three days and can't believe I used lesson plan books the way I did. With this program from Tapperware you can schedule all of your classes (whether or not you teach them everyday of the
week) and print them out. My principal is highly impressed with the way the lesson plans come out of the printer. Also, the developer is very quick to reply to any questions you may have concerning the application. Get this
one, stop wasting time and paper on conventional lesson plan books!!!!!"

"Lesson Plan and its updated desktop component have grown to be an essential part of my
day as an elementary school teacher. The instructions on how to set up classes,
times, etc. are very well-documented.
The desktop version allows one to print a week-at-a-glance (great for yourself) or a full day's worth of lesson
plans (allows for more detail and is a great help when one might have a substitute teacher).... The best reason for this program is that I've always got
my daybook with me and can quickly see what is next up. I strongly recommend this program to other teachers... If you are a teacher using your
palm/visor in your class now.... get this program, it's definitely an essential program!
You won't be disappointed!"
