Application Aims: Never Blame Rover Again For Missing An Assignment

Reviewer’s Comments
StudentDocket provides an easy to use, logically organized task management program with the specific needs of students in mind. It’s a whole lot better than keeping track of myriad scraps of paper with random reminders or trying to make do with a business-oriented project management program. StudentDocket’s top down view begins with the creation of classes from the main page. Load each class with information including course name and location as well as scheduling details, curriculum requirements and notes specific to the class. There’s also a place for teacher information like name, office hours and location, email address and phone number.

Large tasks such a major papers, exams and projects can be managed in logical steps, facilitating planning and helping to keep you on schedule. For example, a major task such as a term paper could include milestones like concept development, research, creating an outline, first draft and final due date. Each can be managed with independent due dates culminating in the final product. A complete overview is available by opening the project display.

Assignments and other projects can be viewed as due today, tomorrow, due this week, due this month or due within a user-definable timeframe. Assignment due dates can also be viewed by class. Enter notes for each assignment with memory-jogging information. To ensure that valued information isn’t lost, backups can easily be performed with each routine backup of the BlackBerry device with the BlackBerry Desktop Manager program.

StudentDocket provides a project management and task scheduling application that is organized around classes and the realities of campus life. The new Timeline provides a comprehensive look at what’s to come to aid in overall planning.
