Assignments come from many courses at once. One table sorted by due date shows what comes next across all of them.
Who it is for
It is for students with several courses at once, from high school to graduate school, and for parents helping a child keep track. Put the study time itself in the study planner.
What is in the assignment tracker template
- Assignments: a table with Course, Due, Status (not started, in progress, submitted, graded) and Grade, sorted by due date.
- Assignments by status: a donut chart drawn from the table.
- This week: a checklist of the next steps.
An example
At the start of the term, Ines adds every assignment from her three course outlines, with due dates. The table, sorted by Due, shows the essay draft first. She sets it to In progress and adds a reminder three days before the deadline. When a quiz is graded, she marks it Graded and enters 88%, and the chart shows how much of the term is already done.
