I'd like to see a seamless integration with Google Calendar.

Wish that WiZiQ online platform was compatible with Ubuntu (linux) OS!

Importing contacts

What a great feature! However, it needs more work.
I have currently some 600 plus contacts and only about 70 of them are students. What is needed is that individuals or groups can be imported. Lucky I am using G'mail, but many use Outlook, so this feature should also work with Outlook.
This feature could be taken to an even higher level if the contacts could be synchronized. My students are a transient lot and changes happen almost every week. If I could just synch my contacts, that would be really nice.
A second problem is that the email addresses are only divided by a comma. This makes it very difficult to search. They should be in columns or some thing similar. Also a method for grouping would be nice.

Cheers Lori

Agree George
In my case I teach over and over the same set of courses. It would be nice just to change the dates.

Hi Benjamin. Those ideas sound good. But in addition it would be good to acknowledge whose other materials it is so that students could go and look at the other teachers own classes or materials if they want.

I just loaded 35 classes for May, it took approximately 2 hours.

I sooooooooooo wish we had the ability to repeat events or at least recapture last entries for streamlining class scheduling functions.

HARMAN, HELP.... I'm dyin' out here.

I am not a detail oriented type person please, have a little empathy. My wife would even be willing to do some counseling in return (she is a counselor), and no, she has given up on me. It would be for someone else.

One more wish (for today ;-)

The record/pause record function works well but it is such a dangerous thing to use (once class gets started I never remember to start the recording again after pausing it). While I understand the issues of editing a recording on the server, I would like the ability to simply trim the beginning of the class to when it actually starts.

I am only a part time teacher at WIZIQ but I sure would like some scheduling help. I have visited most of the other learning portals out there and I am so jealous of the integration with calendar programs. Please consider making a friendlier interface with calendars.

I agree and there are a lot of limitations with the content library, including a more robust search feature. Even a work around would be nice if they would allow the actual content (of another persons public content)to be downloadable for re-uploading to my content library. Currently I cannot even download my own content from wiziq. (tried to do this to capture a PPT i mistakenly deleted on my computer, but I couldn't download it from my content library, only share or delete)
