Combine homework submissions into one daily report
A teacher used a no-code agent to pull homework status from several places and merge it into a single check-in report.
- What they did
- A teacher linked a no-code setup to Office 365 tools along with Power Automate, BhindiAI, Zapier, and Make. The workflow looked across Google Classroom, email, and paper submission records, then stitched the findings into one report. The human role was mainly picking the tools and connecting the automations.
- How it went
- What used to take about 45 minutes was cut down to seconds. The post did not say how the paper turn-ins were digitized or give any accuracy numbers. A commenter pointed out that FERPA could be a major concern in the U.S.
- Tips
- If you build something similar, decide how paper turn-ins will enter the system before you automate the report. In schools, check student privacy rules before you share or store the output.
