This application will be flawless if we were able to import and organize Whole classes by period. Another greAt feature would be the ability to print. What do you guys think?
Unethical

I wanted to give this app a punishment for false advertising and only allowing five names. Punishment-delete
Not really sure

The lite version is too limited, only three actions per student? I'm trying to use it to track actions for a whole week! (and not just discipline) i have no idea yet if this app can meet my need. Please expand the trial version!
Takes long. Does not keep a lot of students!

It's very cool. But I do not like how long it takes to pick things out for my students. I have 100 students for my grade and it takes forever. You can only keep like 5 students (VERY annoying) But otherwise it's fine.
Lite version is limited, but considering full version...

The user interface an customization options make this app a great data collection too. LOVE the email feature that sends detailed info about each action. As a Sped teacher, I think the full version of this app has the potential to be invaluable!
Unwieldy and incomplete.

Seriously? I can only record three behaviors? After all that tedious typing? I spent way too much time setting this up for my class only to find out that I can only record three behaviors on a handful of kids. How disappointing! Why not be honest and say, "this is a sample of our product"? No way will I ever buy the Pro Version. I feel cheated already.

I've only just begun to utilize this valuable program. It's simple, and to the point. So far the Lite version works for me because luckily I don't have more than 5 difficult students to track in my elementary school general music room. HOWEVER I have no qualms about upgrading to Pro should the need arise. This program offers a quick set-up, customizable parameters, and efficient email communication with parents and professionals involved with each individual student. There is even a 'multiple' feature so you can quickly mark down when more than one child committed a particular infraction. The 'stop light' color system makes it easy to show when the child was having their best days and their worst. With teacher accountability becoming more and more prevalent in our profession, this tool is the quick and easy 'antidote' for the undeserved blame we get when a child is unresponsive to behavior modification strategies, and/or parental failure to respond or follow through. As my brother-in-law-lawyer is always telling me, "S/he who is most documented wins." This is the best way to show you are doing all you can on your end, to insure a child's success.
