I think the assignment calculator and the research project calculator are pretty useful--especially for college students. I think High School teachers usually have their own versions to give to their students because having a step-by-step plan is part of research paper instruction to get them ready for college. As far as assignments, teachers now usually have students track their assignments in some type of notebook that they are supposed to look at everyday, but I think for a longer term group project, the assignment calculator would be good for the group to use.
Both would be useful for the Public Library crowd of patrons--but usually high school AND college students (and often their parents) come in when it is far too late for planning. They need to figure out their project Friday and it's due on Monday.
I think the Assignment Calculator might be good for me to use when planning programs or projects. I like to check things off when I've completed them so that the whole project doesn't seem so overwhelming and I can see progress is being made. Two thumbs up for this 2.0 tool.
