Design 3  - Observation Tablet

The interface is designed to be ultra-efficient. The teacher can take fast notes of her observations during class, and share them with Busy Brenda. Busy Brenda can check her mail daily and stay updated on Sarah’s progress.

• The main screen would have the name of each student. When Teacher Tammy checked Sarah successfully did her homework, she would click on Sarah's name, type a message on the textbox and save it. Her comment would be saved in Sarah's page.
• The second picture shows how Sarah’s profile would look like. At the end of the day, Tammy would click into Sarah’s profile, and send all her comments to Sarah’s mom. 
• Brenda would receive an email containing Tammy's comments. This would allow Brenda to stay up to date with her daughter's progress at school
