Elevator Pitch:

We asked ourselves, how hard could it be to make something better than Schoology that provides the same Schoology functionality, but with a better user experience and also was the location for all regular homework assignment and project completion? We took it upon ourselves to look for a real world problem we faced and try to solve it. We learned a whole lot in the process!

Who is our user

All of us!

We find that the most imporatant use of our site is that the most relevant information is easy to access and that communication flows freely.

Teachers

• teachers can create assignments - like creating a homework assignment.
• teachers can create feedbacks on submissions - like providing feedback on homework.
• teachers can look at all assignments and all submissions - like looking at all homework assignments and all homework submissions from all students.

Students

• students can create submissions on released assignments - like turning in homework on an assigned assignment.
• students can view released assignments and their own submissions - like looking at assigned homework and the same student’s responses.
• students can view feedback provided by teachers on that student’s submissions - students can only see feedback given to them

Code we are proud of
