Good job guys. This is very helpful to students and to teachers if they are willing to adopt it. Keep it up.

I work with one of the biggest "supplemental education" companies in US on a regular basis to design / develop their software solutions.

One thing I have learned is that teachers and students don't have control over what system the district/university wants them to use. The sale has do be done at the higher level. In some organizations the teacher's employment contract forbids them from introducing new tools that is not "supported" by the organization.

This is how companies like Blackboard, etc. have made it big because they sold their system to the decision-making groups and circumvented teachers and students.

You need to think about this as you market and sell your product, find a school district or university willing to give your service a shot.

Good Luck!
