- Weekly Overview: Aggregates data from the Daily Task Log to display a summary of weekly progress across subjects and goals.
- Goal Tracker: Maintains long-term academic objectives (e.g., "Complete Calculus Module 3 by June 15"), with milestone tracking and completion status.
- Time Allocation Dashboard: Visualizes how study time is distributed across subjects using pie charts and bar graphs.
- Progress Reports: Generates monthly or quarterly performance summaries based on completed tasks, average effort, and goal completion rates.
Table Structures and Columns
Daily Task Log (Main Table)
| Column | Data Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Date | Date (DD/MM/YYYY) | Entry date for the task. Automatically populated using =TODAY() when a new row is added. |
| Subject | Text (Dropdown List) | List of common subjects: Math, Science, English, History, Languages, etc. (Data validation ensures consistency). |
| Task Description | Text | A detailed description of the task (e.g., "Complete 20 Algebra problems", "Read Chapter 5 of Biology textbook"). |
| Estimated Time (minutes) | Numerical (Integer) | Planned duration for the task in minutes. |
| Actual Time Spent (minutes) | Numerical | Recorded time used after completion. Can be manually updated later. |
| Status | Text (Dropdown: Not Started, In Progress, Completed, Delayed) | Tracks progress for each task. |
| Priority Level | Text (Dropdown: Low, Medium, High) | Helps prioritize daily workload. |
Goal Tracker Table
| Column | Data Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Goal ID | Text (Auto-generated) | ID like G-01, G-02, etc. |
| Objective | Text | e.g., "Finish all homework for Chemistry by Friday" |
| Due Date | Date | Target completion date. |
| Status | Text (Dropdown: On Track, At Risk, Delayed, Completed) | Auto-updated based on task log entries. |
| Milestones | Numerical (0-100%) | Progress percentage tracked with a progress bar via conditional formatting. |
Formulas Required
- **Automatic Date Entry**: `=IF(A2="",TODAY(),A2)` (in the Date column to auto-populate when new entries are added) - **Task Completion Tracking**: `=IF(AND(Status="Completed",ActualTime>0), "✓", "")` – marks completed tasks with a checkmark. - **Weekly Time Summary (in Weekly Overview)**: `=SUMIFS('Daily Task Log'!D:D,'Daily Task Log'!A:A,">="&StartOfWeek, 'Daily Task Log'!A:A,"<"&EndOfWeek)` – aggregates actual time spent per week. - **Goal Progress Calculation**: `=IF(DueDateConditional Formatting
- **Status Column**: Red background for "Delayed", yellow for "At Risk", green for "Completed". - **Priority Level**: Color-coded cells (Red: High, Orange: Medium, Green: Low). - **Time Spent vs. Estimated Time**: - If Actual > Estimated by 25% or more → Highlight in red. - If Actual < Estimated → Highlight in light green. - **Goal Due Date**: Automatic highlighting for dates within 3 days of expiration (yellow), and past due (red). - **Progress Bar for Milestones**: Uses data bars to visualize completion percentages.Instructions for the User
