When Students Don't Know What to Do, Nothing Gets Done

Without clear task lists, students procrastinate, miss deadlines, and constantly ask "What should I be working on?"

"What Should I Be Working On?"

Students constantly message you because they don't have a clear task list to reference.

Last-Minute Rushes

Students don't start working until 2 days before the deadline, then panic and demand your immediate attention.

You're the Only To-Do List

Tasks live in your head and your notes. Students have no visibility into what they need to do.

No Way to Track Progress

You have no idea if students are actually working on their tasks until it's too late.

Repeating Yourself

"Did we already discuss this task?" You waste time re-assigning work that was already agreed upon.

Things Fall Through the Cracks

Important tasks get forgotten because there's no central place to track everything.

Crystal Clear Tasks for Every Student

Assign tasks, set due dates, and track completion. Students always know what to do next, and you stay in control.

Prioritized Task Lists

Students See Exactly What's Next

Every student has a prioritized task list showing what's most urgent, what's due soon, and what's coming up.

  • Tasks automatically sorted by priority and due date
  • Clear descriptions and instructions for each task
  • Link tasks to specific colleges or application components
  • Students check off tasks when complete (satisfying progress)
