#school time table

Communication has been the way of living for humans right from the ancient times. And relationships are built through communication. The only form of communication during olden days was the human voice. The first phone using digital communication was introduced in the early 1990s. Post 1990’s, digital phone technology developed at a rapid pace. The first text message (SMS) was sent in 1993.

Growth of Digital Technology

Digital technology has revolutionized communication in the modern world. 3G digital phone communication arrived as early 2001. To think that it has been less than 2 decades is quite surprising isn't it?

WhatsApp was launched in 2009. It practically replaced text messages by providing a completely free app for communication. People started finding ways to use WhatsApp beyond just a friendly SMS alternative. Schools started relying on WhatsApp and other social media tools. Their interest was to keep communication going between teachers and parents.

Let us understand WhatsApp better

WhatsApp has 1.5 billion active users in over 180 countries. 1 million people register on WhatsApp daily. The country with the largest user base is Brazil. 58% of users access WhatsApp several times a day. WhatsApp is the third most downloaded Android app in the world. 65 billion text messages are sent through WhatsApp everyday. One billion groups are in use on WhatsApp. WhatsApp is banned in 12 countries. An average user opens the app 23 times a day.

In this day and age, technology is designed to make teachers, school and student’s life more organised and easily manageable. During every academic year, the class teacher has to manually sit and enter the finalised timetable into every child’s diary. This takes away so much of their time. With the change in technology, schools are reaching parents more and more on their mobile devices. Sharing timetable for one is also digitised to improve the overall efficiency of all. With an easy to use UI, teachers can create timetable in just a few minutes using ready to use timetable templates on ONNE. And parents need not wait till the end of day to see it. It reaches them on their mobile instantly.

On ONNE, as we aim to improve the efficiency by 30%, we have looked into all the features that a school actually needs and have worked on an effective time table management module that is efficient and effective for schools.

Why manage your Timetable via app?

Creating timetable on a school app like ONNE, provides the school the advantage of managing teachers, their time, substitution in the event they take leave and without having to worry about making these changes manually. That kind of manual effort can be quite daunting for the school.
