Microsoft To Do

August 3, 2023

If you have a hard time remembering due dates, or tasks that you need to complete, or even could use some support to break tasks down into more manageable steps, Microsoft To Do may be for you! 😊

What is Microsoft To Do?

Think of Microsoft To Do as a digital to-do list, but, way easier to use and you don’t have to rewrite your to-do list multiple times because it’s messy looking or you can’t fit all your tasks on your to-do list (anyone else have these problems, or is it just me?!). Microsoft To Do helps you to conveniently organize your tasks in one place, and access that to-do list from multiple devices (because I can’t be the only one with a physical post-it note of a to-do list at home, that wishes they had that to-do list with them while out and about?!).

Features of Microsoft To Do

  • You can see your tasks across different apps (Teams, Outlook & To Do to name a few)
  • See your tasks on different devices (laptop, desktop, mobile)
  • Create tasks from Teams messages
  • Create tasks from emails in Outlook
  • Share your tasks with others (family, coworkers, classmates in a group project)
  • Break down large tasks into smaller steps

…and if that doesn’t sound good enough on its own, Microsoft provides you with suggestions to update your daily or weekly to do list!

How to Access Microsoft To Do

Microsoft To Do is available to students for free! This is because as a student at Red River College Polytechnic you have access to Microsoft Office 365 (and Microsoft To Do is included with Microsoft Office 365).

RRC Polytech campuses are located on the lands of Anishinaabe, Ininiwak, Anishininew, Dakota, and Dené, and the National Homeland of the Red River Métis.
