Our application is a mobile app for both iOS and Android where students organize their school work and set goals to help them complete assignments. An increasing number of students are no longer using an agenda so those students need to be able to organize their work and manage their time effectively. This is one of the main purposes of the app. Students will be able to view their assignments which is pulled from Google Classroom. They can then add goals attached to those assignments (e.g. finish brainstorming, finish intro paragraph etc.) and set the time when this goal/task is to be completed. They would be able to view upcoming goals/tasks and view them on a calendar. Students will also be able to choose to be alerted for upcoming goals. They will also able to view task completion performance (tasks completed on-time vs. late) so they can reflect and improve on their time management. A teacher can use the app to view their students goals view their goal completion performance so that they can make sure their students are on track.
