EducationCurriculum Management3MediumSubstitute Teacher / Long-term Sub$ implied

A substitute teacher with limited time and pay needs to quickly create structured curriculum, assessments, and classroom management from scratch for three different courses.

Existing curriculum planning tools are time-consuming and not designed for rapid, from-scratch development by a single teacher with limited resources. Traditional planning requires significant after-hours work, but this teacher needed to create everything during limited personal time while not being compensated for it.
