New to PowerSchool/Teacher. The GUI is not very user friendly.

I'm new to PS/PT, but used it enough to realize how user unfriendly the GUI is. For example, I have plenty of experience using Excel and Sheets, and it surprises me that the Assignment Grading tables don't allow easier copying and pasting options, or selecting multiple cells for editing. For example, integration with Google Classroom would be SO much easier if multiple cells could be copied from GC into PS/PT.

The Fill-down option is there, but fills down ALL the columns or Rows, This is not very convenient, as you need to re-edit those cells which didn't need to be filled. Selection of multiple cells as in Excel or Sheets would make PS/PT so much more versatile.

 

thanks!! Time is GOLD for teachers 🙂

Hi, I'm not sure how many PowerSchool people will see this post because it's in the general community thread.  You might try two things:

 

Add it to the Ideas Portal under PowerTeacher Pro (In fact, there may already be existing ideas that fit yours and you can vote those up.

 

Second thing to do is to post it the PowerTeacher Pro forum.
