Feedback, Ideas, and Troubleshooting

A time converter that is very simple to use could be embedded in the school house platform to allow tutors and learners to know/calculate which timing they are free even if they are in distinct time zones.

Hello everyone. I think that it would be nice if whenever someone gives a tutor a "Not Helpful" rating, they should be required to explain why. This is because if there is no feedback given to the tutor, they won't be able to improve!

Possible reason for low attendance is that learner registers for multiple sessions that are scheduled at the same time. Solution 1: Completely restrict learner from registering for sessions that conflict with other sessions the learner has registered for (with a message saying "You can register for this session only if you withdraw from the [name of conflicting session] session") Solution 2: Show a pop-up "warning" message like "You have already registered for another session to be held at the same time. Are you sure you want to register for this session?" Some issues to look out for: --Sometimes a learner wants to attend just a part of a session (like a General Q&A) which might go on for hours. In that case, the learner should be allowed to register for another session whose timings overlap with this session. --What if a learner registers for session XYZ and session PQR which are to be held at different times, but then XYZ is rescheduled and conflicts with PQR?

schoolhouse website is 50% of time ok to load and 50% of time due to traffic, its very very very slow to load. i request you to please enhance load handling of traffic of site.

Wouldn't it be better if we receive physical rewards like Exam Pads, Notebooks, etc. on studying for particular time? It motivates us to study and spend more time on this site, it even increases the curiosity of attending a class or session. Please take a glimpse on this....

There should be an option to redo certifications considering that college will be able to see you. My current certifications don't accurately represent my academic ability. I am a better tutor now than I was 2 years ago when I first joined Schoolhouse, but I don't think college will really understand that.

Many sessions and series on this platform have overlapping qualities beyond their topic, such as their style (practice problems, lecture, discussion, etc.), intended audience (by grade, etc.), purpose (introductory, review, etc.), etc. As much as tutors should elaborate on what their sessions are like through their descriptions, having tags would encourage them to think about their session structure. Most importantly, tags allow for learners to more efficiently search through sessions. They can filter through these general descriptors of sessions that they want (or don't want). This use case will be especially popular when there are many sessions to browse through; similar to how someone would search through products on a shopping site. Relevance to APs, etc. The AP category is long-debated for its necessity but weird ambiguity by separating "normal"/non-AP and AP topics. Sure, exact content and difficulty can vary from the two categories, but their goals are often the same: help learners master a concept. Ex. an introductory session in limits is largely the same in an AP and non-AP context. Certifiable AP tags accomplish the best of both worlds: a label for AP-oriented material without excluding them from their non-AP counterparts. An AP page should still exist, but searching a topic will display non-AP and AP content (unless filtered out by the user). Honorary certifications in an AP topic also can build off of the mastery video recordings: to get the tag, a tutor submits an honorary certification like they would for an individual topic (like we do for the current separate AP topics). However, this implies that they must certify themselves through mastery recording of the "normal" topic. An engineering difficulty is to limit this AP tag to only applicable topics and those the tutor is certified in the AP category for (Ex. certification in AP Calculus for the AP tag does not grant universal usage). This feels long overdue (and my fault for not pushing this months earlier) but I finally present my case here:) Engineering is somewhat moderate as it crosses UI/UX and certifications. Thoughts?

Every here and there in different subworlds, I'll see official Schoolhouse profiles co-tutoring sessions but am never sure of the correlation between them. I'd love it if these accounts could mutually follow each other and have an easy access points so we can see all the Schoolhouse highlights together!

There are quite amount of no. of trainings and modules that a tutor goes through. But, we do not have one for learners. This module will address certain guidelines that should be followed by all users (and most users do!). However, sometimes, disrespectful behavior (whether intentional or unintentional) can appear on the platform. And these days a few situations have been reported where learners sign up but don’t show up frequently, having no patience in the sessions if they join late or have missed any prior sessions, not understanding that tutors are also learning and they need a space to improve and polish their skills, requesting sessions but not showing up timely, and some other related activities. I'm absolutely not considering the whole learners' community but just a few who act these way! Hence, to prevent this and considering having more and more users, I think it would be good if there's anything that would at least bind learners to some extend so they abide by and respect tutors' time and efforts.

It would be great to send a message to all participants from our session in case we missed telling them something in the session or we want to notify them about something like an assessment.
