Extension summary

Google Clasroom Tweaks currently provides several key capabilities (which - IMHO - are missing in Google's current product offering):

On the Google Classroom tab: (with all of the columns for your assigments, tests, quizzes, etc., etc.)

  1. you can filter the columns to show just those that match a particular text string - e.g., you can show just your tests. You can also exclude columns (e.g., hide all columns that do not contain the text bonus, etc.) The filter supports or capabilities (e.g., enter test|quiz to match both tests and quizzes) and it also allows regular expressions (e.g., enter out of (1)?4 to match columns that are marked out of 4 or 14... cool, eh?)
  2. with the click of a button, you can highlight entries that have been resubmitted, are missing, have not been marked, have been marked but not returned, etc., etc.
  3. you can also click a student name and all others in the class will be hidden... so now you can get a good view of the results for that child. Click the name again to show the rest of the class

On the Google Classroom tab: 4. when you are looking at student submissions, a new dialog appears and allows you to quickly select pre-defined feedback from a pick-list. The comments that you've selected in the dialog are automatically copied to the clipboard (and then can be pasted as a private comment in the assignment or into any other interface you want - e.g., report cards!). You have full control to create your own comment banks that are specific to your classes and/or assessments. I have extended the feedback comments capabilities so that you can now have comment headings that are auto selected, radio button comments (where you can pick one entry from a number of choices), and select button comments (where you can pick as many that apply to the current assignment. Again, you have full control over what is included in as many comment banks as you require. To do: add more documentation of this feature... `cause there's a lot of functionality in it!
