I've got a small app I use to keep track of student progress toward learning goals. I break my chemistry class down into simple "I can" statements for each unit and give feedback on students' abilities on performing those skills. They range from lab skills like "I can prepare a solution at a given concentration" to conceptual material like "I can explain why water's properties allow it to dissolve different substances." This gives students specific goals for making improvements and allows me to actually observe and give feedback on meaningful skills in chemistry. Since originally building it, I've added little things here and there which help me visualize proficiencies across the year between classes. I'm happy with the overall structure and I can get the information I need, but dang...I can't make a smooth interface. There are some small friction points that I put up with, but I always feel like there's a tweak I could make to help, but I don't know how to turn that feeling into…
