Efficient Email Management Tools to Help Students
Earlier, assignments, essays, thesis reports, and other writing projects are sent to professors as hard copies. But as technology advances, teachers required students to submit their projects through email. Many educational establishments around the world use this process to save time and resources.
Email is efficient for both the students and the teachers because:
- Students do not have to print their projects.
