Thing Sixteen!

Assignment Calculator & The Research Project Calculator.

Thing 16 provides great tools to assist students with assigned projects. I was familiar with them, but now looked at the teacher resources and links provided. Last semester I did a "fake" assignment where I was given reminders based on the dates that I submitted. I am not sure if many students or faculty members at our college know about these tools, so think that we could promote them in the coming year when we do class presentations. Many of us are "last minute" people, so need prompts to aid in deadlines.

If I have projects to do in the coming year, I may try using the tools again. The 23 Things project would even be a possibility to do with reminders for each project so all are done by the deadline.
