I think this might be a big help for me to keep my online class work organized and together in one place… Much Thanks man, deff going to be sending some dead presidents your way, I have a question though, is it possible to change the week start day? I’d like to have my weeks start on thursday if possible… I seem to remember an option for this when i first started up the program?

Also, is there a support forum or something somewhere?

Wow! This seems to be a piece of wonderfully useful software!

I haven’t used it so far (school only starts in three weeks), but I’ll definitely give it a whirl!

Thank you ever so much for your hard work! If the software works out for me, I’ll -definitely- make a donation! You deserve some help in your hard work!

if you could in any way try to integrate it with iCal? i can’t bring my computer to school with me so i bring my palm. when i sync my palm with all the assignments for the day, it’s only going to go to iCal. if you could find a way to sync the two together, that would be totally awesome!

I’m wondering if you could add another feature–instructor mode. Instead of having the option to add multiple instructors, the ability to add multiple students. My current workaround is to have a bunch of the same classes with each student’s name appended. I also have to clone all the assignments.

Many thanks.

This is such a great program. I’m in grad school now and have been using it for everything and have recommended it to my friends!

I like its simplicity and ease of use. I enter all the information for a course off the syllabus at the beginning of the semester and no surprises later on, plus I get all my work done!

Two things I’d like to ask about: how can I change the types of assignments? I don’t do labs, but I do discussion board posts, etc. I’d like to be able to set my own assignment types. Also, at the beginning of the semester when I’m entering all the assignments I’d like to be able to enter the possible grade instead of waiting till I finish the assignment to have to go back to the syllabus to see how much it was worth.

Is anyone having problems publishing it? I’ve tried various methods, and ended up getting a .Mac account and when I try to publish that way it says error 404 file not found when I try to go to the site Schoolhouse says it published to. This program is great and since I’ve spent all the time entering in the assignments, I figured I should let my friends benefit and use my published courses.

Thanks again. Please let me know if I’m doing something wrong with my settings especially for publishing but also for assignment types. This is a great program!!!

Yes, I would also love to have it sync with ical and maybe have a calendar for all of schoolhouse or one for each class.

Thanks for schoolhouse,

Ryan

I would use this application all the time, except… no iCal export!
What I really yearn for in an application, is something that I can manage my school stuff with, but also gives me an alarm, and sends the info to my iPod, or iCal.

Good suggestions everyone! I hope he incorporates them in 2.2.

I’m not sure why, but the app quits when i try to designate a course for an assignment. how can i fix this? i’m running OS 10.4.9 on an ibook G4. otherwise i really like the app.

Great program, but I have run into a couple problems that some of you might be able to help me with. Is there a way to edit course information (instructors, scheduling, etc) after you have already submitted a new course? I can’t seem to find this anywhere, which is a problem because if I need to edit this information I have to delete the course and add it all again. Also, has anyone else ran into a few buggy interface problems when configuring the weighted grades when submitting a course?

Again, great program.
