Adding A Subject Area Grid to Lesson Planning by day
I am new to Transparent Classroom and my old paper record keeping system had a grid with Monday through Friday as headings across the top, but along the sides there were all the subjects from Art to Music. This allowed me to make sure I was giving a balanced number of lessons in each area of the classroom.
Right now when I use "By Day" under Lesson Plan I feel lost because there is not delineation between subject area in each day. It sort of automatically puts lessons in order by subject in the queue, but once on the actual…

That teachers be able to tab between different student's portfolios.
When teachers are preparing to generate progress reports it would be nice to tab quickly through the whole classes portfolios without going back to the children page and selecting a new child. I am suggesting an arrow that takes the user from one child's portfolio to the next child's portfolio in the class.

Notification of Changes to Parent Contact Information
It is VERY important to us to have the most up-to-date contact information for our parents, and to be sure we update it in all our record-keeping systems. The Admin->Changes page is not easy to search or determine what specific change was made. I would like to have either an email notification to a school administrator, or some other easy way to see any time a parent makes changes to their phone number or email address.

Enhanced app usage
I'd love for the app to have all of the usability and content that the website does. It would be much more convenient to do it all in one place. :)

Tracking of Expiration Dates on Health Forms and the Ability to Send Notifications to Parents Prior to Health Form Expiration.
If you could add a feature to track when children's health forms are expiring and send an automatic notification to parents a month prior to expiration and also a week prior. It would also be helpful to have a way to view all children's health form expiration dates on one page for ease of access.

Have a way to keep track of the lessons given by week.
It would be nice to have a calendar view that records the lessons from the previous week on the days that they were given, and you could click on it to see the children that were in the lesson. This would be essentially the same template as the "by day" lesson planning view, but ihe data wouldn't go away after the lesson had been presented.

Rearrange Report Templates
Once various conference report templates have been generated for a school, it would be helpful if an admin could re-order them on the drop down list to make it easier for teachers to locate the appropriate one for their grade level.

tagging children and lessons from the app.
It would be beneficial is the iphone app let you tag children and lessons in the pictures.
Also attendance from the app would be helpful to. I can't use that part of TC because I have no computer in my classroom.20 votes -
Add more level to the evaluation scale
I want to suggest to add more levels to the evaluation scale. Current evaluation scale has only 6 levels. However, our education system (Latvia) uses scale from 1 to 10, thus we need scale with 10 levels.

Make a way to rotate photos with only one-click
Currently, I can only rotate a photo 90 degrees clockwise at a time. This process is so slow that sometimes I end up clicking "rotate' one time too many and have to start over again. Could you add some more choices for rotation, such as "180 degrees clockwise" and "180degrees counterclockwise" to make this process faster?

Progress Report comments
Allow for report comments that import easily from one term to the next. For example; have a fall comment box, then a winter, then a spring, where by the end of the year the parent could read all the comments on the report easily. This would also allow for admin, especially district admin who do not know TC, to see written out comments alongside of progress through content.

Bulk Remove Unneeded Forms
Every student has countless forms, requested, submitted, and approved. We only need a small subset, just want to keep the most recent, approved forms. We would prefer to not delete each form individually. How should we proceed?
Alternatively, could there be a way to archive past forms?

Form Folders
Create form folders - each year produces a packet of forms for each child, and so for children who have been at the school for more than one year, their form list is very long and it's hard to find what you need. It would be great to be able to create form folders for storage (and which admin could label by year, by topic, etc.).

copy lessons from other schools
When setting up, it would be helpful to be able to look at lessons that other schools have added and import them into my classroom, or allow other schools to copy lessons I have created.

Form notification sent to multiple people
Our schools use forms for reporting incidents and minor injuries.
I would like a notification to go to the parent, the child's teacher, and the head of the school. For injuries we want anyone that may have to respond to a parents concerns to be in the know.
I would like the ability to set this in each form.

Name and date on printed lessons and color coding lessons by subject
I have been asked to inquire if it is possible to change the formatting of printed lessons so that the teachers can include their name and the "week of". Also we would like to know if it is possible to color code lessons by subject area. Thank you for your consideration of these requests and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Allow progress reports to continue to pull/update a record of student lessons even after the report has been generated.
This would allow teachers to begin writing report comments before the end of the year when students still have weeks of learning to report on.

Edit Planned Lessons from Lesson Plan / Child Boxes page
It would be great if teachers could remove lessons from the child planned lessons boxes on the Lesson Plan / Child Boxes page without having to go into Progress & Plan or the By Day window.
