Pokin' Holes Pre Show – Schedr.com
I personally always liked taking morning classes in college. Well that and figuring out how to maximize the amount of time I didn’t have to be in class. Don’t get me wrong, morning classes can be a pain (fighting the head bobbing in an 8:30 class is an art in itself) and it certainly never made going out easy but I loved having my afternoons and evenings free.
The difficulty of choosing classes however was that I was never able to visualize what my tentative schedule was going to be. I wanted to be able to see how much white real estate in my daily itinerary I could create but rather than allowing my computer to do it I had to visualize everything in my head or sometimes even write it out on paper with a pen.
And that’s where Schedr comes in (pronounced Skeder… I know, I know the German speakers are confused, me too!). Schedr is a visual course scheduling tool. Rather than manually inputting classes into your Google Calendar to to visualize your semester, Schedr takes care of that for you. Listen to Tom explain more about his company in this week’s Pre Show.
Course scheduling is a pain. See how Schedr makes it easy in their tutorial video.
