Tag lessons by type (Notes, Tests, Labs, etc)
Seeing the unit in my lesson bank is great, but it would be even better to be able to see the type of lesson at a glance. A well visible tag would be a great solution to this, and they could even be color-coded for even easier identification

Performance Report - allow standards average
Our school has gone to standards based reporting and I would like to input the levels 1 (not meeting grade level), 2 (progressing), 3 (meeting), 4 (exceeding) and get an average for students for each reporting period.

Update current day highlighting automatically
Whenever I leave planbook logged in overnight, the highlighted portion on the current day remains on the previous day unless I logout and log back in again. It would be great if it would automatically update at a certain time--midnight would make the most sense.

Edit lessons on Copy page
In the copy section, once I have dragged a lesson from the left to the right, I want to be able to then edit the copied lesson right there. Not have to go back to plans in order to edit it.

Quick add new lesson to bank
I know that entering multiple assignments in a spreadsheet has already been proposed, but I'd add to that a column to do an entire lesson in a spreadsheet (include Lesson title, page numbers, etc.). By have a spreadsheet for entry, that would eliminate numerous clicks on different buttons. The "data spreadsheet" would be linked/synced to the Planbook interface so that when changes are made in the online Planbook interface, the spreadsheet data would also update. From year to year, this would be an easy way to see an entire year at a glance instead of at the most only seeing…

Make ALL teacher plans easier to view
Make ALL Teacher Lessons Easier to View... for Students, Parents, & Subs
It is "too much work" for students to login (to their student account or teacher's view key) to view their teacher's plans. Sorry - but this is a high school request and we struggle with getting lessons in front of students.
We wish to see all teacher's lessons linked, preferably categorized by department. This would eliminate the need for over 100 HS teachers to set up their view key or get their links emailed to our webmaster. We also have 2,000 students... so creating and managing student accounts…

Show Google Drive Starred
When I access my Google Drive I always have to pick through my folder tree beginning at the highest level. It would be nice if I could view and access my starred folders.

Print without a page break after header
When I print a lesson that covers more than a single page the header for that class is on one page but the lesson does not start until the next page. Essentially, thee is an entire page for just the header and the rest is blank. The actual lesson does not have a header, which is confusing, especially for subs.

Attendance In each Group?
Is there a way to embed your attendance in each lesson or group? I have my planbook set up for intervention groups. And instead of having to click add attendance in the drop down for each group, do my students just show up?

Allow a "Class" to be added to a non-school day
I would like to post debate tournament information in a class rather than an event, so I'd like to make a class that meets on Saturdays. I can't currently make Saturdays class days because that messes up my alternating day schedule. Using an event doesn't work because I can't control how long the event expands the way I can with a class block--and I don't want all that extra space at the top of my week because Saturday has a long event.

Show edits for shared lessons
I share my planbook classes with another teacher. I would love to see when and what edits they make to our shared classes. Similar to the "suggest" option when sharing a Google doc.

Allow equal size Events
Allow us to set Events and calendar items as equal size blocks to match the equal size lessons. As it is events and calendar items push equal-size lessons far down on the screen. Please allow us to set these events and calendar items (especially if they have long notes) to equal-size blocks to match our equal-size lessons to keep everything lined up on our screens without large gaps.

Print lessons side by side when overlapping times
When there are overlapping times that things occur, it would be nice if they would give us the option to print it in blocks so that they show up side by side. It would give the visual that there are more than one activities going on at one time.

"Score Weight" Report
For data analysis: I would like to export a report of a specific class, and get a list of all the students and their average score for a specific "score weight". A specific "score weight" can have more than one assignment, so that is why I would like the average score. thanks in advance.

Add a View Toggle in the Lesson Bank
The Lesson bank feature is oriented vertically. Yet, old school teachers were trained to plan lessons and subjects horizontally in old school plan books. Is it possible to incorporate a view feature in the lesson bank feature so teachers could toggle, similar to the calendar view, to a week (5days) or Month (a 6x5 section) to be able to view the lesson banks differently. I know that I am spatially challenged but I would think this would help many, and you have part of the functionality already developed. Something to consider. Thank you! I really appreciate planbook and all the…

Standards search across all grades per discipline
Instead of being forced to select a single grade for standards, either eliminate this or allow a search section for "all grades"

Select multiple classes for attendance report
I am running attendance reports since I'm a special education teacher. I would like to base their participation grades on attendance with me. My groups are so small that if they are here, then they are working. I have 10 classes to run reports for. It would be great to select multiple classes and have their attendance run at once.

Hide Google events separately
I used Google a lot. I love that I can sync my Google Calendar to my Planbook. Unfortunately, I discovered that when I desselect "Events" on my Planbook View button it hides ALL events, even the Planbook events. When I am planning for a sub I don't want the sub to see all my Google Events for several reasons. It would be great if Planbook could create a feature that would allow for users to separately deselect Google Events and Planbook Events.
