Glide Apps for Students

@Christopher_Salber Last year I tried to help my daughter and grandson with creating a simple system to list his homework. I thought it would be a snap as the school uses Google Classroom. Well I logged into GC and it didn’t take me very long to realize that there was no consistency or reliability in the assignments given by the teachers for their classes for each day. I don’t really know or remember if it was how the teachers were using GC or if it was GC itself or a combination of both. Without sounding arrogant I’m pretty good a data analysis and figuring out software programs and was totally stumped. So that said…
My idea would be to have the students create a homework app. It would be great if you could get the other teachers involved, but if not you could have select students have the “teachers app” so they could put in the assignments for an assigned to them class. There would be actually two apps, one for students and one for the teachers/helper students. They would both point to the same spreadsheet. Obviously the teachers/helper students would be able to create entries for each days assignment. The student app would show the assignments by teacher and class. The students could “favorite” their classes and have all their homework assignments at their fingertips. It would be pretty simple for the students to create the app. If you go with that idea I’d be happy to work with you to develop the lesson plans.
