"I simply imagine a tool that is powerful enough that people will see it used well by experienced teachers, and want to use it themselves."
Well, good luck, and if you have thought through the detail of this I would be interested to see the specification (in the Spolsky sense) for the system you envisage.
"I in no way imagine such a tool being mandated for anyone"
Of course everyone will have to use it!
Edit: parent poster is also a teacher, so he must know that anything that is suggested by management as a central tool will immediately become mandatory!
- japhyr 14y agoI am hoping to complete my MEd in December, and I want to complete an mvp of an os ed tool as my masters project. I wrote a bit about the tool I envision previously [1], and I recognize that the next step is writing a proper spec. That will be part of the masters work. Nice to see another teacher on here!

- keithpeter 14y agoGood luck with the more detailed specification. I shall read it with interest. In the UK we tend to have many small outcomes per lesson, and a second document called a scheme of work tracks the large arc of a year's work.
