Assignments & Due Dates to Post in the Calendar; Color Coded Snapshot
Assignment Color Coded Monthly Calendar (Snapshot)
This would be a great feature to provide students a visual snapshot of assignments on a monthly calendar. Students could be able to manage time for various due dates, properly prioritize tasks, organize future communication and quickly access information.
I also suggest to link the assignment title on the calendar to the assignment criteria when students click on it.
And,if the assignments could be color coordinated that would be fantastic!!
i.e. green assignments are completed, orange assignments are not completed, red assignments are late, purple assignments are assessments, yellow assignments are due that same day, brown assignments are extra credit, etc.
I think the color should be a standard across all subjects. Once students learn what each color represents, they will clearly process the information faster as they will most likely have 4-7 subject calendars.
Final feedback, each student may have one master calendar and all the subject calendars are linked to it.
As a teacher, I would utilize the snapshot calendar feature too! I could quickly: identify who needs a gentle reminder, access and analyze data visually verses numerically.
Thank you for your consideration.
