Participants emphasize the importance of software tools for planning and documentation, with a focus on techniques applicable across all educational levels. The conversation also touches on ethical considerations regarding Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval for research involving human subjects. Overall, the discussion highlights the need for effective planning tools and ethical research practices in educational settings.

For teaching, I assume? What level... high school, university...?

Welcome to the PF. 
Have you read the threads in this Educators forum on adaptations to teaching during the pandemic? They should give you some good ideas, depending on what your question is focused on.
Do you mean before the pandemic? Or during, or after the pandemic?AntonSatek said:

this does not sound like it is a question related to educators. Could it be another misdirected post in the wrong forum, which appears to be a common occurrence here?

Actually, I'm conducting a research on scholars' experience in planning, taking notes, drawing up documents (what techniques and tools they use). Not sure if it's off topic, but I'm interested in all level educators' experience (not depending on the pandemic). Thank you for your interest and comments!

So you're doing human subjects research without telling them that initially? And your IRB was okay with that?

As @Vanadium 50 has by his question hinted at, the approval of the Institutional Review Board must in almost all cases be obtained prior to conduction of any experiments on any human beings -- if your plan includes keeping the human beings in the dark about it when they are being subjected to the experiment, that probably won't fly past IRB pre-approval.
